What is the Reading COMPASS test?

This is a computerized test given in the Student Success Center on the LCC campus.  If you have already taken this test at LCC, we should be able to access your scores and you will not need to repeat it.  There is no cost associated with the COMPASS test. You should allow 40-60 minutes to take the test. You may take the test any time during operating hours of the Student Success Center. Students are given reading comprehension passages and asked multiple-choice questions regarding comprehension and vocabulary. If you have taken Reading COMPASS at another institution, you need to submit your scores or retake the test unless you have taken the ACT.  

What if I've taken the ACT?

If you have an ACT score of > 18 in Reading, you are exempt from this test but need to submit your ACT scores.
