Welcome to the Arabic Placement Test
About the test
The test takes approximately three hours in length, and it is composed of three portions:
a. The writing portion is completed via Zoom and it is worth a total of 100 points.
b. The reading portion is completed online through Canvas site, and it is worth a total of 48 points.
c. Right after finishing with the reading portion, each student will have a follow-up interview with a proctor. The interviews last approximately 15 minutes and it is worth a total of 20 points.
Important: The interview portion will be weighted most heavily as it will be used to validate performance on the other two portions. The final result/score/rating will thus be based on the student’s performance on the interview above all. Rating of performance on the writing or reading portions is secondary.
How is the result calculated?
Students who receive 60% or above will be placed in Arabic 401 and thus placed out of the LSA Language Requirement.
Where can I view my results?
Placement results are posted within 7 business days after taking the test. You will not be notified of your score automatically.
You may view your placements via: Wolverine Access > Student Business > Academic Records > View Placement Exam Results.

Developed by the MORE Committee, this workshop helps enhance the mentoring relationship between the student and faculty mentor by facilitating the development of shared expectations. Mentors and mentees work independently in separate sessions to identify their own objectives and styles, and consider strategies for dealing with possible challenges. Then, student-faculty pairs work together to develop a written mentoring plan as a means of codifying some of the most important elements (needs, goals, mutual expectations) of a two-way mentoring relationship. Among Rackham doctoral students who have written mentoring plans, 83 percent find those plans useful.
Registration is required of both the faculty and the student. Separate registration for students is available at: https://myumi.ch/zXzVJ.

The "Engaged Mentoring" series is for faculty mentors of research trainees at any stage of training. This program is an evidence-based, interactive approach designed to elevate mentoring skills for engaging in productive, culturally responsive research mentoring relationships.

By the end of the program, mentors will have articulated their style and philosophy of mentoring and have a toolbox of strategies for approaching difficult mentoring situations. These skills will support the success of both mentors and mentees, and it is responsive to the NIGMS guidelines regarding the preparation of mentors involved in training grants.
