PURPOSE OF THE GET

The outcomes of this assessment will help to establish an objective, reliable and valid way to measure student proficiencies in communication skills and problem solving. In addition, they will provide students with data that will help them understand how their proficiency levels compare with industry-defined standards of job readiness

FORMAT AND DESCRIPTION OF THE GET

The GET consists of the Base Module with five skill tests and the Optional Modules with two skill tests. All students registered for the GET will be required to test for the Base Module on their verbal, analytical, speaking and writing skills. In addition to the Base Module skill tests, students are required to test for at least one skill from the Optional Modules, depending on their need. Students can opt to test for both skills – quantitative and computer science skills, from the optional modules for an additional fee of Rs. 200.00.

Descriptions of the test sections are as follows:

• · The Verbal Reasoning section of the test will measure the test taker’s ability to analyze and evaluate written material and synthesize information obtained from it, to analyze relationships among component parts of sentences, and to recognize relationships between words and concepts.
• The Analytical Reasoning section of the test will measure the test taker’s ability to understand structured sets of relationships, deduce new information from sets of relationships, analyze and evaluate arguments, identify central issues and hypotheses, draw sound inferences, and identify plausible causal explanations.
• The Speaking section of the test will measure the ability of non-native speakers of English to speak English in a professional environment.
• The Writing section will measure the test taker’s ability to organize and support ideas and to use standard written English.
• The Quantitative Analysis section of the test will measure the test taker’s basic mathematical skills, understanding of mathematical concepts, and ability to reason quantitatively and to solve problems in a quantitative setting.
• The Computer Science section of the test will measure the test taker’s basic programming fundamental skills, and understanding of computer systems, structure and design.

The following is the current test design to represent the GET.

In addition to the test length duration, 10 minutes will be provided for preparation prior to the start of the test and 10 minutes will be added at the end of the test.

Score Reporting

Student Name:

The GET will determine three levels of achievement: Advanced, Intermediate, and Basic.
• An Advanced-level student has sufficiently mastered the skills measured by that section and is considered ready for employment in the IT sector without additional training.
• An Intermediate-level student has sufficient mastery of the skills measured by that section to be considered employable in the IT sector, but will need some additional training.
• A Basic-level student has not yet achieved sufficient mastery of the skills measured by that section to be considered employable in the IT sector.

Each student taking the GET will achieve one of these three proficiency level scores for each section of the test.
