    This test can be used to satisfy the Los Rios Competency requirement:

    • COMPASS

    • CTEP

    • Both A and B

    Correct Answer
    A. Both A and B
    Explanation
    This test can be used to satisfy the Los Rios Competency requirement because it is applicable to both COMPASS and CTEP. Both of these assessments are accepted by Los Rios Community College District to assess students' skills and knowledge in various subjects. Therefore, choosing "Both A and B" as the correct answer implies that this test can fulfill the competency requirement for both COMPASS and CTEP.

    • Reading Competency

    • Sentence Structure & Grammar

    • Sentence & Syntax Skills

    Correct Answer
    A. Reading Competency
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Reading Competency" because the question asks for a section that is NOT a part of the CTEP. The other two options, "Sentence Structure & Grammar" and "Sentence & Syntax Skills," are both sections of the CTEP. Therefore, "Reading Competency" is the correct answer as it is not a section of the CTEP.

    Explanation
    Students who score 33 or higher on the Reading portion of the CTEP satisfy the Reading competency if it is their first Reading placement test District-wide. This means that if it is their first time taking the Reading placement test in the district, a score of 33 or higher indicates that they have met the requirements for Reading competency.

  • 9. 

    On which exam is a calculator not allowed?

    • Chemistry

    • Math placement

    • Math competency

    Correct Answer
    A. Math competency
    Explanation
    A calculator is not allowed on the Math competency exam because this exam is designed to assess a student's ability to solve mathematical problems without the aid of a calculator. This exam typically tests a student's understanding of basic mathematical concepts and their ability to perform calculations manually. The purpose of this exam is to evaluate a student's proficiency in math and their ability to apply mathematical principles in real-world situations, which is why the use of a calculator is not permitted.

  • 10. 

    On which exam can a student skip a question:

    • ESL Listening exam

    • Reading Competency exam

    • Math Competency exam

    • All of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Math Competency exam
    Explanation
    A student can skip a question on the Math Competency exam because it is possible that they may not know the answer or may not have enough time to complete it. In subjects like ESL Listening and Reading Competency, it is important to answer all questions as they assess the student's listening and reading skills respectively. However, in math, it is common to encounter complex problems that may require more time or may be beyond the student's current knowledge, so skipping a question is allowed.

    Correct Answer
    A. A hard copy of the exam is always programmed to print at the end of the exam
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "A hard copy of the exam is always programmed to print at the end of the exam." This means that the COMPASS Remote exam does not always generate a hard copy of the exam at the end.

    The ADA station is number 30 in the Lab. The first A stands for:

    • Alternative

    • Americans

    • Adversity

    • Advanced

    Correct Answer
    A. Americans
    Explanation
    The first A in ADA stands for "Americans" because ADA is an acronym for the Americans with Disabilities Act. This act was passed in 1990 and prohibits discrimination against individuals with disabilities in various areas, including employment, public accommodations, and telecommunications. The ADA station being number 30 in the Lab suggests that it is related to accessibility and accommodations for individuals with disabilities, which aligns with the purpose of the Americans with Disabilities Act.
