ACCUPLACER Next-Generation placement tests (Reading, Writing, Arithmetic, QAS, AAF) - College Board

ACCUPLACER is the College Board's computer-adaptive placement test that colleges use to place students into reading, writing and math courses. Each test is reported separately on a 200 to 300 scale, and every institution sets its own cut scores, so a strong result can save you time and tuition in developmental courses. SummitCert's portal helps you practice each subject with exam-style questions and explanations, flashcards on the key skills, a timed mock exam, and progress tracking by area.

ACCUPLACER Next-Generation consists of separate placement tests: Reading, Writing, Arithmetic, Quantitative Reasoning, Algebra, and Statistics (QAS), and Advanced Algebra and Functions (AAF). Each test is computer-adaptive and uses four-option multiple-choice questions, and unscored pretest questions are mixed in at undisclosed positions (College Board program manual 2025-26). This portal's practice mock has 105 questions across the five tests. There is no pass mark: each placement test is reported as a scaled score of 200 to 300, and each institution sets its own cut scores for course placement. The fee is set by each institution; the College Board program manual leaves the charge to the school, so no fee is quoted here. The content outline spreads questions across 5 areas; the largest are Writing (23.8%); Reading (19.1%); Arithmetic (19.1%). The full list of areas and weights is on the portal exam page. There is no national eligibility rule; the college or program that asks you to test decides who must take ACCUPLACER, which tests apply and what retest policy it uses.
