Placement Guidance:

 If students score fewer than 10 correct answers, consider starting in the level below.
 If students score between 10 and 40, start at the expected level and assess scores to check
whether remediation is required.
 If students score between 50 to 75, assess scores and consider an additional oral interview to
decide whether the expected level or the upper level with some remediation would be more
appropriate.
 Students who scored 75+ should be started at an upper level.
