Exeter Math Placement Test

<p>Did anyone else find half the questions practically impossible? Because i know i did.... I know its not about doing well because you want to be placed correctly but i was still kind of embarrassed that i had to leave 2 questions blank and i think it was 1 or 2 unanswered...</p>

<p>theres stuff on there from pre-algebra to ap calc</p>

<p>I never got a placement test. weird</p>

<p>yeah like some of the problems were like 'uhh i learned this forevvvver ago' and some where like 'am i supposed to know how to do this?!'
i mean, i'm in the highest math program my school offers, and my school is reeallly good for a public school, so they can't seroiusly expect incoming ninth graders to know how to do all of them</p>

<p>oh wait
is level one the hardest or is level four?
or do they just have different stuff on them?</p>

<p>I think each level has to do with each level of math. Level 1=algebra 1 Level 4= Calc.</p>

<p>People got the placement tests?</p>

<p>..Wait, I submitted my papers late.... great.</p>

<p>dude. the placement test was freakishly hard. i left a bunch blank. and at my regular school, i am good in math. but, i definitely wanna be placed in a low math class next year.</p>

<p>Haven't gotten mine yet. Not like that's a bad thing...it's still a math test.</p>

<p>haha yeah
well a part of me was like good i dont want to be in an uber-math class cause its most definitely not my favorite subject; i like languages better. but still...</p>

<p>yea i started on my test today and after the first 10 problems
i was dizzy and exhausted lol
the test was so hard. it almost made me feel dumb</p>

<p>oh btw, i got a really really weird answer for number 5..
i think i had to round ...
lol</p>

<p>AHH it was such a scary test.
i had a bunch of decimals on a bunch of my answers (like wiseman222 above) so i think i rounded.
but i got all the problems done
xept it took me like 2 hours
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
it was really scary because I kept thinking "shoot am I supposed to KNOW this??? what if they think that i faked something on my application because i do really really really badly on this???"
aow;eifj;ldm
:(</p>

<p>what math are you trying to test into?</p>

<p>wait mine only had like 8 or 9 problems
so it only took me like 45 minutes
granted i didnt do 2 of them...</p>

<p>what level tests did you guys take??</p>

1 Like

<p>mine had 15 problems
..
omg maybe i printed out the wrong test..</p>

<p>i didn't get mine yet!</p>

<p>Don't worry guys, the placement tests are hard but they're no reason to feel stupid. Exeter math's a little bit different (though much like the test you took,) but you'll acclimate quickly and they will put you in the right math course for your ability (which is higher than that placement test will make you believe.) Also, If you feel you've been misplaced, is fairly easy to skip up or down a level later on.</p>

<p>do you think they give you the language placement test, then wait and send the math placement test?</p>

<p>Hey artsmart. I think I might know why you havent gotten your math placement test yet, but I need to know which math you would be going in and what grade.</p>

<p>They send it by email or through snail mail?</p>
