Taking Placement Tests

A quick word on placement testing.

Placement Testing

If you plan on getting a degree, or you plan on taking college-level English, Reading, or Math at MCC, you’ll need to take placement tests before you can register for classes. This is a very important step because placement tests help make sure you begin with the class that’s right for you. An academic advisor and you will review your scores and together you’ll decide which English, reading, and math courses offer you the best chance at academic success.
