For law students in the third-semester and higher who have not yet taken the English placement test, the next date is Friday, October 9, 2020 at 11:00 in lecture hall H05 in Griebnitzsee. Registration is required. Link
For students in the 3rd semester and higher who have not yet taken the placement test, please follow the link to sign up on the information list.
The placement test is a prerequisite for taking any English course at Zessko. This means that only students and staff, if applicable, who have already taken a placement test for English / Key Competences at the University of Potsdam and whose results are in the electronic system can register for English courses.
The result of the placement test is binding and has to match the score listed as a prerequisite for the course you wish to enroll in. Students who would like to repeat the placement test must present proof before they take the test again that they have in the meantime successfully completed a language course of at least 4 semester hours (60 x 45 minutes) or have studied abroad.
APPLICABILITY OF THE PLACEMENT TEST:
The placement test for the English department is valid for at least three years, or as long as the result is shown under “My test results” in PULS or EES.
The placement test is used exclusively for the placement in the language courses at Zessko at the University of Potsdam. It is therefore not possible to use the placement test results for broader assessments of language fluency or to confirm the attainment of specific language skill levels. For this purpose, it is recommended to take the UNIcert exams offered at the Zessko.
