RE: assessment

[Horton, Joseph J.]

Our institution will pay for the students to take the GRE subject test if they send a score report to us. This obviously only assesses the students who are considering grad school. But student motivation is high.   Joe   Joseph J. Horton Ph. D. Box 3077 Grove City College Grove City, PA 16127 724-458-2004   In God we trust.

Apparently, in the past, not much rhyme, reason, or motivation was given to students to take the test, so they didn't prepare for it and thus tended to do quite poorly.  Have any of your institutions had this problem? Suggestions for ways to encourage the students to take it more seriously?  THANKS for your help. Rory O'Brien McElwee, Ph.D. Philadelphia University     Do you Yahoo!? Y!
