ACCUPLACER Placement Tests
ACCUPLACER Preparation Materials
The ACCUPLACER Placement Tests are for students who have either not taken the ACT at all, or those who have taken the ACT, but are not satisfied with their scores or the courses required.
The ACCUPLACER Placement Tests are given in the LCC Student Success Center on the Main Campus and remotely using the Zoom platform:
- Monday - Thursday from 8:00 am - 6:00 pm
(last test begins at 4:30 pm)
Requirements for taking an ACCUPLACER test remotely:
- Access to a tablet, laptop, or desktop computer with audio and video capabilities that can be used in a private, quiet space for the duration of the testing appointment (60-90 minutes). Test takers are encouraged to test their systems for Zoom compatibility.
A MOBILE PHONE IS NOT AN ACCEPTABLE MEANS OF TAKING THE TEST - Photo ID (driver’s license, student ID, employment ID are allowable, as long as they have a clear photo and list both the first and last names of the test taker)
- The test taker’s face must be visible for the duration of the testing appointment.
- Test takers must provide their own scratch paper and writing utensil and show them to the proctor.
- An external calculator IS NOT allowed during the Math test. There is a calculator embedded in the computerized test itself that may be used on certain math questions. (This does not apply if you are only taking the English portion of the exam.)
- No one other than the tester is allowed in the room while testing is in progress. This includes children, pets, or others who may distract the test taker’s attention.

- The Learn as You Go option will take you to a practice test with questions similar to the ones you find on the Accuplacer test. As soon as you answer each question and confirm your answer, the test platform will tell you whether the answer is correct or incorrect, and why.
- The Practice Test will function exactly as the regular test in that it will give you all the questions, but will not inform you which questions you answered correctly. We recommend you start with the Learn as you Go option first, then try a Practice Test to see how well you do.
