Remote TSI or ESL Assessment
海角社区 offers several options for completing the TSI Assessment remotely for students who are planning to enroll at 海角社区.
Pre-assessment Activity Module
The Pre-assessment Activity Module (PAM) is a state mandated, online pre-assessment required of all students who need to complete the TSI Assessment. The PAM is an online practice exercise which gives students prior exposure to the types of questions that will be presented on the actual TSI Assessment. The PAM also will assist the students in identifying any academic weaknesses in the three areas of Math, reading and writing prior to attempting the actual exam. The PAM must be completed before attempting the TSI Assessment regardless of the option selected. The PAM does not need to be proctored or supervised and can be completed on any internet enabled computer. Navigate to for instructions on how to complete the online PAM.
