Education Connection Debuts New College Competency Test

Boca Raton, FL (PRWEB) November 29, 2007 -- Education Connection, a leader in advising individuals who are looking to advance their careers through online education (http://www.educationconnection.com), announced today the debut of its new college competency test. The college competency test is the latest online education resource in Education Connection's line of highly-effective self-assessment tests.

"We have found that many individuals who are interested in getting a degree from an online school aren't sure if they are prepared academically for the experience," said Todd Zipper, Chief Operations Officer for Education Connection (http://www.educationconnection.com). "Our goal in creating the College Competency Test is to allow consumers to evaluate their strengths and weaknesses so they can make a more informed decision both about going back to school and what course of remediation they should take when first entering school."

The college competency test assesses potential students according to standards concurrent with the math and English requirements of a college freshman. Using a battery of proprietary questions and algorithms, the test scores prospective students similarly to how they would be graded on standard college-entrance exams.

"The test is graded using a similar matrix to the one used to grade the SAT and ACT tests." said Zipper. In this way, they can better assess their academic proclivities and choose an online degree (http://degrees.educationconnection.com) that is most reflective of their strengths.

Education Connection's college competency test can be found at quiz.educationconnection.com.
