CAMPUS = YBOR CITY40: GIVE MORE TRAINING ON HOW TO EXPLAIN THE ENTRY LEVEL TEST.42: The man that is over the testing center does a great job!51: I just received a paper later in that week stating my score?107: Graig is the most helpful person in that department. He shows how much he cares.115: explain it better152: they just bsaid that i need to take prep course185: go over results254: Your results should be discussed by a couselor not someone at the testing center.289: provide a better study guide302: As someone who took the test being 25 years removed from public education, I feel thatwe should be given at least two attempts to pass sections. My math skills were quiterusty, even using the "tutorials". Now, I'm in MAT 0012 and am way ahead of all theothers. Still, I'm expected to shell out more money to continue until I reach the "degree"math that I need. To me, it seems to be a way to get extra funds. I feel that if a professorcan see that a student truly should be advanced, there needs to be a way to do this.313: I don't know my results and this is my third semester323: nothing ... its great and the people who work there are very nice408: Make test easier431: let people know that it would be a strong influence on what classes they would have totake for prep classes436: Better study guides would help. On the math portion particularly, I felt the study guidedid not relate well to the actual test.475: at the time that i enrolled at hcc it was 1991. The test center staff has changed drastically.i do appreciate the current staff. I would suggest that the test center staff enforce themandatory requirements to complete the pre requistion courses STAT, or find ways toenforce to process.482: The test center gave me a copy of my results and sent me on my way. No explainationwas given at all.498: Explain the resuslts of the testing a little better and what it means.503: I found no issues with the testing process nor the testing department.523: By letting students go in that same with the counselors see the students with last namestarting a-z and so on.561: The staff told me my results and that if I needed any info on my scores I would need totalk to advising (another example of passing the student off to another department).590: They were all very helpful.672: explaining the results better692: Allow students to retake the CPT entry leveltest if they request so.698: ELIMINATE math in it's entirely. as a student of hcc. i feel math is the subject that stoppeople from graduating. even though HCC has a BAD reputation for students norgraduating. but, that one class can and has stoppped students from graduating. the 2 testrule is stupid. it may take a student more than 2 trys to pass the test and if he or she does.they have to drop that class now, how does that look on hcc's behalf. foolish if u ask me.it does make any sense. being a student who has a learning disability in math. no i do notwant u to feel sorry for me just be a little more patience and understanding about studentsStudent Satisfaction Survey 2007 – Q9: Entry Testing – Page 92
