Placement Test for English HaF courses
Only for students who are NOT students of Anglistik at the University of Bamberg.
Placement Test for English HaF courses

To attend English classes, students must take an obligatory placement test before the beginning of the semester. This helps us to place students in the correct level. The placement test evaluates grammar, reading, listening and vocabulary, and must be completed before FlexNow registration closes. Students who do not take the test may not be able to attend English courses this semester.

Description of the Placement Test
There are 100 questions in the test. There are grammar and vocabulary questions as well as reading comprehension questions which become more difficult in the later parts of the test. There are also questions to test listening comprehension. The time limit for the placement test is 60 minutes, but students can submit the test earlier if they have finished.

Test Results
No certificate will be issued for the completion of a placement test, nor can the test be “passed” or “failed”; it is purely for diagnostic purposes. The test results will be posted on the following day on the Language Center website with a score out of 100 and the CEFR level (B1, B2 etc.) you should select for your course(s) . If you have taken a course in general English, you do not have to take a placement test again. If you have taken the Anglistik Einstufungstest, you do not have to take this placement test.

Results of the test are valid for four semesters.

Additionally, students should register in FlexNow (in the section for Lehrveranstaltungen) for Englisch: HaF Placement Test on one of the following test dates:

Inhalt
This course is designed for students of all faculties who have to write academic texts in English.
We will examine the typical style and vocabulary of academic writing and the linguistic tools needed for referencing research sources, producing summaries and composing different types of essays, as well as those skills needed for effective proofreading. This course will not only look at the mechanics of writing, but also aim to help students become better academic thinkers and planners.
This course will involve collaborative work, and through guided practice, students will learn to give peer feedback on their colleagues’ writing, helping them in turn to become better editors of their own compositions. This course will be assessed by the means of a portfolio of texts written during the course (50%), and a final exam (50%).
