Modes of application of TestAS
Selection and admissions procedure
There are various ways to use the TestAS as a selection or admission criterion, in addition to other criteria such as the university entrance qualification.
Among other things, you can
- use the percentile rank to create a ranking and select the best X% of applicants.
- set a minimum standard (standard score/TestAS score) that applicants must achieve.
- offer applicants the opportunity to voluntarily enhance their application with a good TestAS result.
In some federal states, universities are free to admit international school leavers who do not have a direct university entrance qualification (HZB) to study under certain conditions. In this procedure (reformed/alternative university entrance), the TestAS can be a component.
