Students will be admitted upon completion of an online placement test before the beginning of the semester which ensures a minimum of B2 (the level attained upon the successful completion of the 10th class in English in the German secondary school system).

Description of the Placement Test
The online placement test has 12 parts. The first part has 27 questions. The second part contains seven questions, the third part five etc. The questions slowly become harder in the later parts of the test. There are a total of 100 questions in the test. The time limit for the placement test is 60 minutes but students can submit the test earlier if they have finished. Students can return to any part of the test to check their answers at any point before they submit their test.

Test Results
No certificate will be issued for the completion of a placement test. The test cannot be “passed” or “failed”. Instead, after the evaluation of the test, you will receive an email with a score out of 100 and your CEFR level (B1, B2 etc.). When you have the confirmation of your CEFR level, you can register for a course at the correct level.

If you have taken a course, you will not have to take a placement test again.

Results of the test are valid for four semesters.

Students should register in FlexNow under Englisch: Online Placement Test HaF for one of the following test dates:

1) 05.10.2015 16:00-18:00 WE5/04.014
2) 06.10.2015 10:00-12:00 WE5/04.014
3) 12.10.2015 18:00-20:00 WE5/04.014
4) 19.10.2015 18:00-20:00 WE5/04.014

If you have any questions about the HaF online placement test, please contact catherine.irvine(at)uni-bamberg.de for more information.

Inhalt
The course is an integrated language course involving grammar revision and consolidation and vocabulary expansion at the C1 level, as well as practice in reading, writing, listening and oral skills.

By the end of this two-semester course, you should be able to:

• understand a wide range of demanding, longer texts, and recognise implicit meaning
• express yourself fluently and spontaneously without much obvious searching for expressions
• use language flexibly and effectively for social, academic and professional purposes
• produce clear, well-structured, detailed text on complex subjects, showing controlled use of organisational patterns, connectors and cohesive devices

At the end of the semester, there will be an exam similar in structure to the Cambridge Advanced Certificate. In order to receive a certificate indicating that the level of English attained is that of C1, both Preparing for C1 (Teil 1) and Preparing for C1 (Teil 2) will have to be completed successfully.
