The Spanish Placement Test
The Spanish placement test measures competency levels for those who wish to enroll in Spanish courses but need to determine the appropriate starting level. The results show a recommendation of the appropriate Spanish class. Students can enroll in a level lower than their placement, but not higher​.
The test is taken on a computer, entirely multiple choice, and adaptive. This means the difficulty of questions and number of questions depends on how well you are doing on the test. Students generally take around 20-30 minutes to complete the test, but you may finish in a shorter or longer time.
