学校自主决定参加A级或B级考试。
考试每年两次,时间大概在每年的6月和12月。

B级为高职高专学生应达到的最低标准要求,B级标准略低于A级,是过渡性要求。
AB级的能力要求相当于大学英语三级水平,考试一般在每年上半年6月、下半年12月各举行一次(四六级考试的第二天)。
2.英语应用能力AB级证书有用吗?AB级和四六级一样属于国家统一命题考试。
区别仅在于四六级考试对象为本科院校的在校生,而AB级以大专院校在校生为对象。
通过此考试者,国家统一颁发证书。
此考试在全国范围已推行多年,我省这几年大面积铺开,并得到社会的广泛认可,已成为用人单位招聘大专生的一个必要条件。
3.怎样做出一个适合自己英语能力水平的选择?四级考试大纲规定学生应掌握的词汇量约为4500以上,而AB级的词汇量要求分别为3400和2500。
另外,四六级尤其强调词汇量,而AB级则注重基础的语法结构和应用能力。
我们现在所使用的高职高专英语教材注重语法结构和应用能力的培养,紧扣AB级考试的基本要求,这就成为我们参加AB级考试的优势。
4.我能通过AB级吗?只要努力,一定能过。
我校大英部在坚持培养同学们的英语应用能力的同时,将加强同学们的应试能力。
首先在课堂上增加习题练习;其次利用课外时间开设英语应用能力AB级考试辅导班;在AB级考试前,对参加AB级考试的同学进行集中辅导,全面提高学生的水平。

B级为高职高专学生应达到的最低标准要求,B级标准略低于A级,是过渡性要求。
AB级的能力要求相当于大学英语三级水平,考试一般在每年上半年6月、下半年12月各举行一次(四六级考试的第二天)。
2.英语应用能力AB级证书有用吗?AB级和四六级一样属于国家统一命题考试。
区别仅在于四六级考试对象为本科院校的在校生,而AB级以大专院校在校生为对象。
通过此考试者,国家统一颁发证书。
此考试在全国范围已推行多年,我省这几年大面积铺开,并得到社会的广泛认可,已成为用人单位招聘大专生的一个必要条件。
3.怎样做出一个适合自己英语能力水平的选择?四级考试大纲规定学生应掌握的词汇量约为4500以上,而AB级的词汇量要求分别为3400和2500。
另外,四六级尤其强调词汇量,而AB级则注重基础的语法结构和应用能力。
我们现在所使用的高职高专英语教材注重语法结构和应用能力的培养,紧扣AB级考试的基本要求,这就成为我们参加AB级考试的优势。
4.我能通过AB级吗?只要努力,一定能过。
我校大英部在坚持培养同学们的英语应用能力的同时,将加强同学们的应试能力。
首先在课堂上增加习题练习;其次利用课外时间开设英语应用能力AB级考试辅导班;在AB级考试前,对参加AB级考试的同学进行集中辅导,全面提高学生的水平。
