Fiosh Tests Add Writing Section
Freshmen need to know more
than grammar rules to impress
English examiners this year at
the University.
For the first time, placement
tests include a section which tests
the entering students' ability to
write.
Dr. Dudley Bailey, supervisor
of freshman English, explained
that in previous years freshmen
have been placed in one of three
courses on the basis of scores on
an objective English usage or
grammar test.
These three courses are English
3, advanced composition; English
B, composition and grammar, and
English A, a non-credit remedial
course.
Last spring second section
was added to the placement tests.
It is an objective test of vocabu
lary, reading comprehension and
linguistic aptitude.
The newest test consists of a
series of six questions about such
subjects as dating and life in the
hometown. The students are asked
to write short essay answers to
each of the. question.
These papers are read by mem
bers of the English Department
staff who judge each student on
his ability to write.
Special emphasis is placed on
the writing test as the students
are assigned to one of the three
English courses.
Thus, a student who cannot
write literately and easily is
placed in English B although he
may have a high enough score on
the objective tests to qualify for
English 3.
In some instances, the reverse
situation occurs. A student may
have a score on the objective tests
which indicates placement in Eng
lish B but his writing ability is
such that he is placed In English
3.
Dr. Bailey explains that the pur.
pose of the new test is to en
courage students to learn to read
and write rather than to spend
a great deal of time on grammar
drills.
