MPE On-campus Sessions Unavailable

Due to COVID-19, we are following the UC San Diego guidelines and cancelled all on-campus testing for the spring quarter. We are offering ProctorU through September 30, 2020 to meet all enrollment needs.

Student-paid MPE remote sessions via Proctor (for $20) June 3 - September 30, 2020.  

Campus-paid MPE remote sessions take place July 15-August 16 (for transfer students and students receiving AP or IB results who need to take the MPE).  Students who have already taken the MPE this academic school year must register for the student-paid session.

See Online ProctorU (MPE) for information on taking the MPE via ProctorU.

MPE results are processed and posted every Monday and Thursday (at minimum and excluding holidays).  Check the dates below with the latest posting.

To review your results, go to http://mathtesting.ucsd.edu/ scroll to the bottom of the page and click on "Get you Math Placement Results here!".You must use your TritonLink login with your PID as the username.

The Math Testing and Placement Office recommends that students take the MPE as soon as possible to obtain options for enrollment.  Additionally, students receive diagnostic results which can be used to inform independent review prior to the start of coursework. 

For on-campus MPE sessions:

Registration is required (no walk-ins are allowed). 

IMPORTANT:

• Students can register for only one test date.  Multiple dates will be deleted. 
• You MUST cancel your registration 24 hours prior to the testing time if you are not able to attend.
• Students who do not cancel within 24 hours and who do not show up to the test session will not be allowed to test on campus and any registration made after a “no-show” will be deleted on Eventbrite. 

Students must wait at least 60 days before attempting to retake a Math Placement Exam.  MPE results from students who retake prior to the 60 day waiting period will not be processed.  Students are expected to enforce the retake policy when registering for and attending an exam session. 

Contact mathtesting@ucsd.edu if you have questions or need assistance to cancel a registration.

Instructions

• Bring Your UCSD PID number and photo ID to the test.  Your results cannot be posted if you do not use your PID number.
• Please be prompt. 
• Bring a #2 pencil and eraser.
• Calculator use is permitted, except for CAS calculators.

Results for on-campus MPE sessions will be available the next working day. Results for exams taken through ProctorU are generally posted once per week and may take up to three weeks before they are uploaded into WebReg.

If you are not able to attend, you must cancel your registration through Eventbrite 24 hours prior to the testing time to allow space for others. Or, you may email Math Testing and Placement (mathtesting@ucsd.edu) to cancel your reservation.

Please note: Testing will begin promptly at the start time listed, and late students will not be admitted once testing has begun.  Please be mindful of the nearby construction, and allow ample time for commuting, parking, and locating the Applied Physics and Mathematics by the check-in time.
