Diagnostic and leveling CAI Communication and critical reading I and II

DIAGNOSIS This is the evaluation that is carried out on undergraduate students in order to characterize and establish their academic level, once they enter the institution and the CAI.

If the student manages to obtain more than 80 % of the score in the diagnostic test, which corresponds to Level 4 of performance, according to the indications of the Icfes in its "Saber 11" tests, he arrives directly to the CAI Communication and critical reading I.

* Level 4 Performance Level, Saber 11 ICFES Exam* Score 66 to 100. Reflects on a text to understand the author's worldview (customs, beliefs, judgments, ideological-political character, and ethical stances, among others). Also, identifies significant paratextual elements present in the text. Finally, evaluates and contrasts the aforementioned elements. Source: https://acortar.link/wRGiKU

If the student does not obtain more than 80 % of the score on the diagnostic test, they must complete the LEVELING course. This is the autonomous and independent work carried out by the undergraduate student for 48 hours, a time that allows them to obtain an adequate academic level to continue with the learning path planned in the CAI.
