Foreign
Language Spanish Placement Exam is available
 LMC has
a program to help students with previous background in the
study of Spanish (in middle school, high school, another school or college)
with an online placement test in Spanish. Participants receive e-mail
notification of which Spanish course they should best enroll in at Los
Medanos College. For information go to the LMC Web Page, Assessment
Page, email nwhitman@losmedanos.edu or phone
(925) 439 2181 ext. 3148. In addition, based on the placement results
and after consultation with the test advisor, the student may sign up
to earn extra units based on the previous study. Thus, if you
had, for example, two years of high school Spanish with good grades,
you take the placement test and talk to the advisor. If the test and
advisor recommend you enroll in Spanish 51S, you take that course and
upon completion of Spanish 51S with a grade of A or B, Los Medanos College
will award you units for both Spanish 50S and 51S (5 units per course
for a total of 10 units). You must pay for the units.
Here
are the procedures:
1. Log
on to the Internet site of the placement test from any Internet connected
computer and you can take the test in LRC I in the computer lab if you
like. It should not take more than 30 minutes.
3. On
the next screen, type in:
User
name: (losmedanos user)
4. Then follow the directions to take the test.
When
you have completed the test - print the results and then contact the advisor, Dr. Whitman, in 211B,
available daily during posted office hours, by phone at (925) 439-2181
est. 3148, email nwhitman@losmedanos.edu
or take the form to Admissions on the Pittsburg campus to register for the appropriate class. You will need to complete a form so that we know you
want us to grant the credit for previous study upon completion of your
LMC Spanish course. You may earn the same number of units for
previous study that you earn for the Spanish course you enroll in. You must pay for the extra units.
