Introduction  \nThe CaMLA English Placement Test (EPT) assesses general receptive language proficiency by measuring performance in listening comprehension, grammatical knowledge, vocabulary range, and reading comprehension and is aimed at language learners whose English language proficiency ranges from high beginner to low-advanced, or levels A2 to C1 on the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR) (Council of Europe, 2001).1 The EPT is designed to quickly and reliably group ESL students into different ability levels. In addition, the test is used by universities, colleges, language programs, and businesses all over the world to evaluate students’ and employees’ ability to use English. In 2012 CaMLA revised the EPT in response to feedback from test users and created three new forms. Launched in January 2013, each of the parallel new forms contains 80 multiple-choice questions and takes 60 minutes to complete. Scoring can be done with a punched stencil using the provided answer sheets, or purchasers may use their own answer sheets.  \nThis report describes the development of the new CaMLA EPT, also known as EPT forms D, E, and F. It provides a brief history of the EPT, a description o","cbCaivPMhPwkYjjs","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaivPMhPwkYjjs","pdf",274944,16,"English","# Introduction\n## History of the EPT\n# Revision Project\n## Test Design\n## Compiling the Pilot Test Forms\n## Pilot Testing Design\n# Pilot Testing Results\n## Test Taker Demographic Characteristics\n## Pilot Testing Descriptive Statistics\n# Structure of the New EPT\n## Content of the New EPT\n## Test Information Functions\n# Interpreting EPT Scores and Determining Cut Scores\n# References\n# Appendix A.
