M.a.p.p. testing

Students

The MAPP is a test of general college-level reading, writing, critical thinking and mathematical skills. You are not expected to know everything on it, and we will not make a decision on your college future based on results from this test.   We do, however, want to know how well you, as freshmen, can do.   If you find that some of the questions are hard, don’t get discouraged.   Take each question as it comes, and just do your best.   You probably know more than you think you do!
