It details score ranges and entry requirements, including PERT-based conditions, ACT/SAT thresholds, and strongly recommended pathways. Notes clarify how to use the lowest relevant PERT score for enrollment decisions, when students may qualify for alternate writing courses, and the need to pass all courses with a C or higher.",{"@graph":14,"@context":72},[15,34,55],{"@type":16,"itemListElement":17},"BreadcrumbList",[18,23,27,31],{"item":19,"name":20,"@type":21,"position":22},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",1,{"item":24,"name":25,"@type":21,"position":26},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",2,{"item":28,"name":29,"@type":21,"position":30},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/exam/","Exam",3,{"item":32,"name":10,"@type":21,"position":33},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/understanding-placement-scores-academic-enrollment-placement-guide/435328/",4,{"url":32,"name":10,"@type":35,"image":36,"author":41,"headline":10,"publisher":44,"fileFormat":47,"inLanguage":8,"description":12,"dateModified":48,"datePublished":49,"encodingFormat":47,"isAccessibleForFree":50,"interactionStatistic":51},"DigitalDocument",{"url":37,"@type":38,"width":39,"height":40},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/understanding-placement-scores-academic-enrollment-placement-guide/435328.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":42,"@type":43},"EvelynWrites","Person",{"url":19,"name":45,"@type":46},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-10-19","2026-09-29",true,{"@type":52,"interactionType":53,"userInteractionCount":33},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":54},"ViewAction",{"@type":56,"mainEntity":57},"FAQPage",[58,64,68],{"name":59,"@type":60,"acceptedAnswer":61},"How are course enrollments determined using PERT scores?","Question",{"text":62,"@type":63},"Enrollment is required based on the lowest PERT score in either Reading or English.
