[1] Ramapo College of New Jersey offers remediation in reading, writing, and mathematics to students who are judged to lack proficiency in
any of these three skill areas. Five online modules of Accuplacer, distributed by The College Board, are used to judge proficiency in
these skills. The reading module determines placement in reading, sentence sense and essay modules determine placement in writing,
and computation and algebra modules determine placement in mathematics.
