The College Board offers Accuplacer as a way to determine the skills of incoming students, and is primarily used by community colleges and technical schools. Accuplacer is a web-based assessment tool to determine skills in reading, writing, and math. It is untimed, but students can normally complete it in less than 90 minutes. All questions must be answered, and students cannot go back over a previous question once they answer it. Accuplacer may determine whether a student goes directly into a college-level course or a remedial class. This site offers free practice questions.
