An Analysis of Parallel Forms of the English Language Entrance Test
Original language description
This article deals with the challenges of development of an English language entrance test at the University of Defence in Brno, Czech Republic. This kind of test is considered to be a high-stakes test and it is part of a battery of tests which should serve the purpose of “sieving” the candidates desiring to study at the University. The format and content of the English language entrance test is designed in a way to reflect the target language needs of the students and the English language proficiency requirements the students have to meet during or at the end of their studies. Development of the entrance test is a cyclic and continuous process annually requiring extensive human and time resources, which brings about the question of how to check the quality and how to achieve efficiency of such a process. For this purpose, the authors of the paper decided to examine the results of this test with the prime focus on the analysis of individual parallel forms of the test, which are necessary to be developed due to the testing conditions and background at the University.
