During grade 10, students in Ontario are administered the Ontario Secondary School Literacy Test. This test evaluates their English reading and writing skills. If a student does not pass the initial test, they have the opportunity to retake it until grade 12. In the event that a student still has not successfully passed the Ontario Secondary School Literacy Test by grade 12, they can fulfill this high school graduation requirement by completing an additional English credit course before graduating.

For international students, the Canada School Board recognizes high school courses completed in their home countries. However, they are only considered equivalent to a maximum of 23 credits in the Ontario Secondary School system. The remaining 7 credits must be completed within Canada. Furthermore, students whose native language is not English are required to meet English Proficiency Test standards, such as IELTS or TOEFL, in order to satisfy admission requirements for Canadian and American univers

Placement Tests

At Toronto EMC, we utilize placement tests to assess the appropriate level of classes or programs for our students. As part of our commitment to ensuring every student's success, we have specifically developed a mathematics terminology diagnostic test for non-native students. The main objective of this test is to determine whether students possess the necessary skills to understand and comprehend mathematical terminologies at the appropriate level in the English language.

By evaluating the student's performance on this diagnostic test, our dedicated staff at EMC will create a personalized study plan tailored to enhance the student's mathematical reading skills within the shortest timeframe possible. This individualized approach aims to provide targeted support and guidance to help the student improve their comprehension of mathematical concepts in English.

Please find below our mathematics diagnostic test, featuring a range of sample questions for students to test their comprehension of mathematics terminologies in English.
