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\u2019s performance on the interview above all. Rating of performance on the writing or reading portions is secondary.\nHow is the result calculated?Students who receive 60% or above will be placed in Arabic 401 and thus placed out of the\u00a0LSA Language Requirement.Where can I view my results?\u00a0Placement results are posted within 7 business days after taking the test. You will not be notified of your score automatically.\u00a0You may view your placements via: Wolverine Access > Student Business > Academic Records > View Placement Exam Results.\nImportant information about the test* Please note that only students who are participating in the Spring\/Summer orientations are eligible to take the online placement test. If you are an existing UM student, please sign up to take the in-person placement test that is taking place in August.* Placements are valid for only one year. If you fail to register in the course that you are placed in, you will be required to retake the test.* Retaking the placement test is only permitted after the placement results expire.* Students who are currently taking an Arabic course will not be allowed to take the placement test.\u00a0* The test assesses students\u2019 proficiency in Standard Arabic (fuSHa), NOT colloquial Arabic.* If you speak an Arabic dialect but you do not know how to read or write or have little knowledge, feel free to register in Arabic 101.* Students who know some Arabic because they came from an Arabic-speaking household or have studied Arabic before, must take the Arabic proficiency test in order to determine their placement.* Students who have taken Arabic at other institutions and wish to continue their Arabic study at UM must take the placement test to determine their level. Credits for Arabic study undertaken at another institution prior to joining UM or in a summer program while attending UM, transfer in as generic departmental credits and students must take the placement test to determine credit equivalencies to UM courses.* If you place in or beyond the 401 level, you will have satisfied the LSA language requirement.* Students are encouraged to take a placement test as early as possible in their studies in order to determine the level they should enroll in, or if they test out of the language requirement. This is extremely important to avoid delays in graduation and complications with placement.* Arabic 101, 201, 401, 501 or 504 are offered ONLY in the Fall semester, and Arabic 102, 202, 402, 511 are ONLY offered in the Winter semester.* Arabic 103 (the equivalent of Arabic 101 & 102, combined) AND Arabic 203 (the equivalent of Arabic 201 & 202, combined) are offered in the Spring-Summer terms.UM\u2019s Arabic curriculum is a dual register curriculum in which students learn to speak and understand the Levantine dialect (the dialect of Jordan, Syria, Palestine and Lebanon) in addition to developing the four language skills of formal Arabic (fuSHa).\u00a0If you have questions regarding the placement test, please contact the Arabic program director at, mesarabicprogram@umich.edu", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"133940-21873708@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/133940", "building_id":"", "building_name":"", "campus_maps_id":"", "room":"", "location_name":"Zoom \/ Canvas", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Sessions"], "website":"https:\/\/sessions.studentlife.umich.edu\/p\/track\/14034", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Sessions @ Michigan", "group_id":"4791", "website":"https:\/\/sessions.studentlife.umich.edu\/" } ], "image_url":"", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"", "event_large":"", "event_large_2x":"", "event_large_lightbox":"", "group_thumb":"", "group_thumb_square":"", "group_large":"", "group_large_lightbox":"", "event_large_crop":"", "event_list":"", "event_list_2x":"", "event_grid":"", "event_grid_2x":"", "event_feature_large":"", "event_feature_thumb":"" }, "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21873708 } , "129647-21864275": { "datetime_modified":"20250522T122016", "datetime_start":"20250522T131500", "datetime_end":"20250522T163000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-05-22", "date_end":"2025-05-22", "time_start":"13:15:00", "time_end":"16:30:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Business Objects 4.3 Zoom Training - May 2025", "occurrence_title":"Business Objects 4.3 Advanced Level Zoom - May 2025", "combined_title":"Business Objects 4.3 Zoom Training - May 2025: Business Objects 4.3 Advanced Level Zoom - May 2025", "event_subtitle":"", "event_type":"Workshop \/ Seminar", "event_type_id":"21", "description":"This is a zoom training that covers the fundamentals of Business Objects and the steps to navigate in the new version to perform basic, intermediate and advanced tasks in BO.

Research shows that sleep and mental health are deeply interconnected. Many mental health conditions, including depression and anxiety, are linked to poor sleep. Different age groups have different sleep needs, but what's clear is that getting enough sleep is a key ingredient to leading a happy, healthy life.\r\n\r\nJoin us as our experts discuss the links between sleep and mental health and break down what the research has to say about how we can maximize both.
