I'M HERE IN FRONT OF THE D BUILDING.
AND YOU'LL ALSO BECOME MORE FAMILIAR WITH THIS BUILDING,
BECAUSE INSIDE ARE THE ASSESSMENT CENTER, DISABLED
STUDENT PROGRAMS AND SERVICES, THE INTERNATIONAL STUDENT
OFFICE, AND THE LEARNING ASSISTANCE CENTER.

FOR THE PLACEMENT EXAM BEFORE I TOOK THE EXAM.
I KNOW I COULD HAVE DONE A LOT BETTER.

CHOOSE THE STUDY GUIDE YOU WOULD LIKE TO REVIEW.
THE ASSESSMENT SERVICES OFFICE PROVIDES PLACEMENT TESTING
FOR ENGLISH, ENGLISH AS A SECOND LANGUAGE, MATH,
AND CHEMISTRY.
IN ORDER TO TAKE THE EXAM, YOU MUST BE ADMITTED TO P.C.C.
BRING WITH YOU A VALID PHOTO I.D. AND YOUR PERMIT TO
REGISTER THAT WE TALKED ABOUT EARLIER.
THE ENGLISH AND MATH EXAMS ARE COMPUTERIZED, MULTIPLE CHOICE,
AND USUALLY TAKE ABOUT 3 HOURS TO COMPLETE, BUT THERE IS NO
TIME LIMIT.
THE CHEMISTRY EXAM IS A PAPER/PENCIL EXAM AND MUST
BE COMPLETED IN 45 MINUTES.
EXAM RESULTS ARE AVAILABLE ONE HOUR AFTER YOU COMPLETE THEM
AT THE ADVISEMENT OFFICE IN BUILDING L, ROOM 103D,
WHICH IS LOCATED RIGHT ACROSS FROM THE COUNSELING
SERVICES OFFICE.
THE ADVISEMENT OFFICE ASSISTS WITH QUICK GENERAL COUNSELING
QUESTIONS, PREREQUISITE CLEARANCES, AND PROVIDES
PLACEMENT EXAM RESULTS.
- NEW STUDENTS ARE ENCOURAGED TO TAKE THE PLACEMENT EXAM
BEFORE ENROLLING IN CLASSES AT P.C.C. IF YOU DELAY TAKING
THE PLACEMENT EXAM, YOU WILL EVENTUALLY LIMIT THE TYPE
OF COURSES YOU CAN TAKE IN UPCOMING SEMESTERS.
AND YOUR SKILLS IN ENGLISH AND MATH MAY NO LONGER BE FRESH
IN YOUR MIND.
PLEASE BE SURE TO REVIEW YOUR STEPS TO REGISTER DOCUMENT
AND REVIEW FOR THE EXAM SO THAT YOU CAN ENSURE THAT
YOU'VE PERFORMED THE BEST THAT YOU CAN.
WE LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR VISIT AT THE P.C.C. ASSESSMENT
SERVICES OFFICE.
- ONCE YOU TAKE THE PLACEMENT EXAM, YOU AND YOUR COUNSELOR
WILL BE ABLE TO PLAN YOUR ROADMAP TO ACHIEVING YOUR GOALS.
