SAMPLE QUESTIONS TO PREPARE YOU TO DO YOUR BEST ON THE COLLEGE OF THE CANYONS ASSESSMENT TESTS
DO YOU WANT TO SAVE TIME, FRUSTRATION, AND MONEY? You are more likely to place accurately, and at a higher level, if you are familiar with the content and format of our computerized assessment tests.
Practice on these sample questions to help review your knowledge base and fill in any gaps that may have occurred since you last took courses in English and math. In the actual testing situation you can take the time that you need to answer carefully. You won't have a calculator available but you will have scratch paper. Become familiar with the way the questions are presented and you are asked to answer.
Work through the sample questions below. If there is an area that you are having trouble with, note the subject and browse through our list of
resources for more practice.
