On January 11, 2021 the TSIA2 replaced the TSIA.  \n• The advisement section involves using the TSIA2 test scores in advising a student as to what courses they are prepared for.  \n• Students that are not college ready in one or both areas of the TSIA2 will be advised into developmental courses designed to prepare the student for college-level coursework.  \n• Students who are not college ready in either area will also be advised as to what college-level courses they can or cannot take until they are college-ready in both areas.  \nHow does the TSIA2 work?  \n• The TSIA2 is a proctored test taken on a computer either on campus or remotely. It is an untimed test.  \n• It consists of multiple choice questions in two sections: English Language Arts and Reading (ELAR) and Math. It is also likely that the student will be asked to type an essay as part of the ELAR section.  \n• Each section consists of a placement test and, if necessary, a student may take a diagnostic test in one or both sections.  \n• When a student completes the test they will receive their scores and should visit with the academic counselor for their program or group for an explanation of their scores and course scheduling.  \nExemptions from TSIA2 Test  \nStudents may be exempt from one or both sections of the TSIA2 Exemptions may be:  \n• Qualifying test scores on the ACT, SAT, TAKS, STAAR, or GED  \n• Military Service  \n• Previous college coursework  \n• Successful completion during high school of the Texas College Bridge coursework (must present valid certificate of completion)  \n• Certain Level I certificates may have TSIA2 requirements waived. Students should check with their academic counselor.  \n• Dual credit students should contact the Dual Credit Office about exemptions.  \n• For more information about exemptions, you may check the Cisco College website: under Admissions, go to Testing and click on the Texas Success Initiative and scroll down to the section entitled \"How Do I Know If I'm Exempt.”  \nThe TSIA2 Mathematics Section  \n• The TSIA2 Mathematics section consists of 20 multiple choice questions on the placement test and 48 additional questions if a student needs to take the diagnostic section  \n• The test covers four broad areas:  \n– Quantitative Reasoning  \n– Algebraic Reasoning  \n– Geometric and Spatial Reasoning  \n– Probabilistic and Statistical Reasoning  \n• Some of the items covered in each of these sections are listed on the next page. Practice materials for the Math section are available in the links to study materials located at the end of this slide show.  \n• You will not be allowed to use outside calculators on the test  \nSome Examples From Each Math Area  \n– Quantitative Reasoning  \n• Use quantitative reasoning to compare magnitudes of rational and irrational numbers  \n• Use quantitative reasoning to solve problems with ratios, proportions, and percents  \n• Identify, manipulate, and interpret linear equations, inequalities, and expressions  \n– Algebraic Reasoning  \n• Solve linear equations, inequalities, and systems of linear equations  \n• Evaluate linear functions  \n• Solve equations and evaluate functions (e.g., quadratic, polynomial, exponential, rational, and radical)  \n– Geometric and Spatial Reasoning  \n• Use quantitative reasoning to convert units within systems of measurement  \n• Find perimeter, area, surface area and volume using a variety of methods, including estimation  \n• Use transformations to investigate congruence, similarity, and symmetry  \n– Probabilistic and Statistical Reasoning  \n• Use quantitative reasoning to compute and interpret probability  \n• Classify data and construct appropriate representati","cbCaibCLLMcZUKH6","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaibCLLMcZUKH6","pdf",618656,"English","# What is the TSIA2?\n## How does the TSIA2 work?\n# Exemptions from TSIA2 Test\n# The TSIA2 Mathematics Section\n## Some Examples From Each Math Area\n# The TSIA2 ELAR Section\n## Some Examples From Each ELAR Section\n# The Essay Section","[{\"question\":\"What is the TSIA2 and what does it determine for students?\",\"answer\":\"TSIA2 is the testing section of the Texas Success Initiative.
