The Computerized Placement Test (CPT), was developed with the help of committees of college faculty, to provide information about your level of skill and accomplishment in reading, writing, English and mathematics. Your college may use the scores you receive and other information that you provide to help determine the English, mathematics, and reading courses most appropriate for you at this time.
