A qualifying ACT or SAT score, furnished by the student. Each student must complete the assessment requirements listed in the table on the other side of this document. JCTC has requested that students take the April ACT if they currently do not have a qualifying score (JCTC ACT College Code: 1571). Ultimately, if the course begins in August, assessment results need to be completed by the 1st week of school. If the course starts in January, assessment results are due after Christmas break. If the student did not receive a qualifying score on the ACT and/or SAT, the student may complete the KYOTE College Algebra and/or TABE A at JCTC in Carrollton. There is no charge for initial testing.
The TABE A test is timed (1 section=50 min. & 2nd section= 55 min). The KYOTE College Algebra is not timed and it has 25 math questions. Students can have a maximum of 3 attempts of retesting per calendar year. However, a $7 fee (no cash) will be charged for each additional retest per section. Always keep a copy of your test scores and give a copy to OCHS guidance.
