Why is it necessary to take the test ?
The placement test is necessary in order to evaluate the student's level of proficiency in French and determine which course is the most appropriate.
听
Who has to take the test?
- All students (including complete beginners) wishing to take a French course are required to take an online placement test.听 All French courses given at the French Language Centre (FLC)听have limited enrollment and placement tests are mandatory for all students.听
- Students currently enrolled in a French class at the French Language Centre (FLC) or students who have completed a course at the FLC in 2020-2021 do not need to take a placement test to enroll in another FRSL course (unless you have taken another French听course outside of 星空真人 or in another department at 星空真人 in the interim).听 To know which course(s) have been recommended for you, please refer to the "recommandations de cours" found on MyCourses (Notes/Gradebook section) of the last FRSL course taken. Please register as soon as possible.听If the "recommandation de cours"听does not appear in MyCourses or if you experience any problems registering, please send an email to flc [at] mcgill.ca and include your 星空真人 ID number, the last FRSL course taken (course number, CRN as well as the term/year and the professor's name), the course number and the CRN of the course you wish to take (e.g. FRSL101, CRN 9230) and potentially a screenshot of the error message.听The administration staff will then tell you which course(s) you can register for and issue a permit to register.听
- Special profile students, visiting students, or exchange students have to take the placement test on regular testing dates. If you are not available for testing on those dates (only for students wishing to take听a summer course),听please send an e-mail to flc [at] mcgill.ca.听
- Graduate students who wish to take a course at the FLC for the first time听must obtain a letter of permission signed by an authorized person in their faculty or department (e.g. a program supervisor) and keep it for their record. Failing to obtain a signed letter of permission may lead to credit denial by their faculty or department. Therefore, it is the student's responsibility to get this letter.听
- Graduate students who wish to continue their studies at the FLC must contact the administration staff regarding this matter by e-mail (flc [at] mcgill.ca).听听

- their 星空真人 9-digit student number听
