"The ASSET program is a series of short placement tests developed by ACT that lets you and your school work together to help you succeed in your educational program. ASSET helps one to identify your strengths as well as the knowledge and skills you will need in order to succeed in specific subject areas. ASSET also helps your school use this information to guide you toward classes that strengthen
. and build logically upon your current knowledge and skills. ASSET has three tests of basic skills in writing, reading, and numerical reasoning, plus moreadvanced tests in algebra and geometry. The ASSET program also offers the Educational Planning Form, which supplements the ASSET test scores by providing the institution with information about individual educational needs and goals.The ASSET is not used like a traditional test battery. There is generally no " passing score." Rather, ASSET scores indicate areas in which you are strong and areas in which you may need help. ASSET can identify problems in major subject areas before they disrupt your educational progress, giving one the opportunity to prepare more effectively for needed courses. This website gives more details about the test www.act.org/asset/pdf/StudentGuide.pdf."
