Montgomery College Assessment Center designed their web site to give students a general idea of the types of questions that are found on the Accuplacer Test, which provides placement and advising information for students when entering college. Students are provided with a printer friendly sample of an Accuplacer practice test and answer key. It is broken down into five sections that cover reading comprehension, sentence skills, arithmetic, algebra, and college level math.
