美国高中数学测试题 MathPlacement

Emma Willard SchoolTroy, New York 12180MATHEMATICS PLACEMENT TESTPurpose: The tests in this booklet are to help determine proper mathematics placement and minimize the need for course changes after the start of the academic year. It is important that the student work independently so that the test will give us a fair representation of her current knowledge and skills. The tests are for placement purposes only. They do not affect admissions decisions in any way. However, it is important to answer questions to the best of your ability in order for the mathematics department to place you properly.Date student received test:_________________Name: (please print)_______________________________ Date test taken:___________ Circle grade you are entering at Emma Willard School: 9 10 11 12 PG Phone number (with area code): _________________________________________________ E-mail address: _____________________________________________ (print legibly please) Name of most recent school attended and the city and state/country where it is located.______________________________________________________________________________ What math course did you take this year, and what is your average grade at the time you are taking this test?______________________________________________________________________________ Have you taken a full-year course called Geometry? Circle your answer. YES NOIf you were remaining in your current school district or at your current school, what would be the name of the course you would take next year?______________________________________________________________________________ How do you view yourself as a mathematics student?Please read the following carefully:Directions to Parents: Please see that your daughter has a quiet place to complete the test in one sitting. The test has four levels. Each level is designed to be completed in less than an hour. Calculators may be used (EXCEPT on the Level One test), but texts and notes should not be used. We do not recommend extensive review prior to taking the test. It is meant to reflect your daughter’s accessible knowledge of her retained mathematics knowledge. It is not to your daughter’s advantage to obtain help on this test since proper placement is contingent on accurate assessment of her current knowledge of mathematics.Directions to the Student: This booklet contains four tests, Level One, Level Two, Level Three, and Level Four. Do as much of all four parts of the tests as you can. The sooner you complete the tests and return them to the school, the sooner we can properly place you and start the process of creating your schedule for the fall. Print out the levels you wish to complete. Be sure to check that all diagrams and problems have printed correctly. Please mail in all parts that you have completed as soon as possible after you complete them. You may use a calculator except on Level One. It is important that you give these tests your serious consideration as they will be the main factor in determining the math course in which you are enrolled.Please show your work neatly next to the problem (including scratch work) as it is useful in our evaluation of your methods and skills. Do not use extra paper, and simplify all answers. Showing your work helps us see where your mistakes were and adds to proper assessment of your understanding and hence proper placement.Calculator Use: It is important to note that all Emma Willard mathematics students will use the Texas Instruments TI-84 PLUS Graphing Calculator in all of our courses. These may be purchased at cost in our school store. While we teach students to use their calculators proficiently, we also stress the need to recognize problems that do not need a calculator and may require students to solve those problems without one. For this reason, on these placement tests we ask that you do as many problems as possible without the use of a calculator. On the Level One test, NO calculators are allowed.Please complete as many questions as you can on all levels of the four tests. For example, if you are an entering freshman and have only completed an eighth grade math course, and are only capable of completing a few problems on the Level One part, THIS IS FINE. If you are an entering junior, and hope to have proper placement, complete as much as you can of all four tests.The purpose of these tests is not to make a judgment about your mathematical ability. It is to assess how well you have been prepared for the sequence of coursesat Emma Willard. We strive to place new students in the course in which they will find the most appropriate challenge.4/12RevisedLevel One Test(total points = 108)In all questions, SHOW YOUR WORK in the space under the question and place your final answer on the line provided to the right.
