The Tests, the most important in the first week

In semester 2 07/08 on May 29, 2008 by dzikrina

In the first week you enter IIUM, you will have various tests to measure your ability and skills. There are :

EPT : English placement test

Measure your English. The first part measure your skills in reading, writing, and grammar. If you pass this part you will move on the second part, listening and speaking class. If you have TOEFL score > 550 you will not sit in CELPAD (Centre for Languages and Pre-University Academic Development). There are 6 levels and your EPT result will determine your level.

I wasn’t pass this test. I was sit in Level 5 (for one semester), and get more than 75% of the full marks. So that, I can sit fot EPT test again. Alhamdulillah, in this second test, i passed :D .

2. APT : Arabic Placement test

For Kulliyyah of ICT, I must passed two levels. I have little bit knowledge about arabic but I cannot passed. So that i must start with level 1.

3. FKT : Islamic Fundamental Knowledge Test

This is like PAI (Pelajaran Agama Islam), the difficult thing is the language. In my case, i didn’t know the maning of ablution (wudlu’). If you pass this test, you will not sit in fardlu ‘ain class, but in halaqoh 1 class.

4. Tilawah Test

There are two levels of tilawah class. You will recite Al Qur’an and the examiner will ask you to recte some short surah of the Qur’an.

I was exempted in the first level, so I moved on the second level.

Bridging Subjects to Kulliyyah of ICT

1. Matemathics

Its not difficult, the subjects include matrices, function, logarithm, integral, possibility, etc like high school math (MADAS or matematika dasar). The most confusing things is the language, because i learnt this subject in Bahasa Indonesia, so that I confused about some words, and I didn’t know what the question talking about. I was fail :(

2. Introduction to Programming

I never learn this subject before, so I was fail :(

3. Basic Computer Science

 This is the easiest subject that I could do. Just talking about software, hardware, and some application. Very basic thing and some time sill question like “What button do you choose to turn on the computer?”

^^

 Then, after all this test I move on my Lovel 0 in IIUM
