Bradford ACCUPLACER Tutoring FAQ
The ACCUPLACER exams are administered to help colleges get a sense of how well applicants or incoming students know certain subject areas. Many students hope to do well on these tests to impress their college of choice but may need a little bit of help to reach their goal. If you or your child could use assistance with your test prep, Varsity Tutors can connect you with an experienced ACCUPLACER tutor to help you work to your academic potential.
Here are some of the subject areas ACCUPLACER exams cover:
Arithmetic
College-Level Math
Elementary Algebra
Reading Comprehension
Sentence Skills
Essay Writing
Various ESL skills
Most ACCUPLACER exams use a multiple-choice format on a computer, with artificial intelligence in the testing software selecting the next question based on how you did on previous ones. The number of questions varies by test, ranging from 12 to 40. There is no time limit for these exams, so students are encouraged to take their time on every question during ACCUPLACER prep.
This is a unique format that most students aren't familiar with, and test anxiety can be an issue. An ACCUPLACER tutor may provide practice exams to familiarize their pupil with the interface to eliminate some of the unknown from the equation. ACCUPLACER tutoring sessions can also focus on exactly what a student needs to review, enabling them to maximize the value of time spent studying.
The one exception to the above rule is the writing test, which requires a student to compose an essay based on the prompt provided. High school ACCUPLACER tutoring sessions are a great place to learn how to outline your thoughts before you start writing to ensure you don't forget an important piece of information you intended to include. Otherwise, your tutor may stress the value of taking your time. While it may be tempting to get out of the testing room as quickly as possible, the fact that there is no time limit on your essay means that you can make the most of the opportunity.
ACCUPLACER tutoring also introduces you to a knowledgeable expert who can explain what your score means. Since the exam is intended to help students be placed in the correct courses for their skill level, it isn't as simple as "passing" or "failing." A tutor can answer any questions you have about your performance in an expedient manner.
If you located this page by searching for "ACCUPLACER tutoring near me," you're in luck. Varsity Tutors can connect you with knowledgeable tutors who can help students with a variety of subjects. We also offer a Live Learning Platform that allows you to work with your tutor anywhere with a stable internet connection. Reach out to us today for more information!
