Home » Student Enrichment Center » Placement Testing » English & Math RISE Study Guides
It is very important that you study for your placement test. We recommend spending at least two hours reviewing each test area – English and math. By obtaining a better score, you will have more class options and can get a head start towards achieving your academic goals.
There are two RISE English placement tests. Students must earn a score of 70 on the first test to advance to the next test. That is, if students earn a 70 or higher on Test 1, then they can take Test 2. If students do not earn a 70 or higher on Test 1, then they cannot take Test 2.
Student performance on each RISE English test corresponds with the RISE tiers that are used for placement into college-level courses with or without corequisite support and into the ENG 002 Transition English course.
