Are there any placement tests for classes? 开学前有分班考试吗?

The Mathematics and Modern and Classical Language Departments have policies regarding the placement of students in advanced level courses. Consult the department chair for information regarding these policies. The Math Department policy is posted on the website. According to Hunter College High School’s handbook “The Umbrella” it states, “Seventh-grade orientation materials explain the process for selecting which foreign language to pursue and how to take placement exams in foreign languages and mathematics if the student expects an accelerated placement. Incoming 7th graders are also given an opportunity to audition for the music performance groups.”

数学系和外语言系有关于学生进入高级课程的政策。学生可以选择参加分班考试(相关信息在录取后由学校通知)。考试成绩决定是否可以进入高年级的班级。
