PLACEMENT PROCEDURES & INSTRUMENTS

Mega Science of Technology uses the CaMLA (Cambridge Michigan Language Assessment) EPT test for Listening/Grammar/Reading/Vocabulary, the CaMLA speaking test, and the CaMLA writing test to determine initial placement. School agents contact the students AT LEAST a week prior to classes starting to make arrangements to take the placement test.  When students at Amlotus are initially tested, either the Academic Director or Academic Coordinator administers the tests. After the CaMLA EPT test and CaMLA writing tests, the CaMLA speaking test is administered. Once the tests have been evaluated, the student will meet with the school agents to discuss the results of the test and the student’s initial placement into an ESL class. Any student who feels that the result of the test is inaccurate or not representative of their abilities can appeal the placement or progression by notifying the Academic Coordinator/ the administration.

APPEAL TO INITIAL PLACEMENT

Any student or an instructor who feels that the result of the initial placement is inaccurate or not representative of the student’ abilities can appeal the placement or progression.

  1. Submit a Request Form for Re-evaluation of Placement to the Academic Director/ the administration.
  2. Upon the submission of the request form, the student may be allowed to retake the placement test at the discretion of the Academic Director or another member of the administration.
  3. Upon completion of the placement test, the Academic Director confers with the classroom teacher, and finalizes placement.
  4. Within 48 hours from the test being taken, the Academic Director meets with the student and the instructor to review both the initial and secondary placement test results.
