This score indicates that there is some problem with the exam that makes it impossible for the markers to determine the correct level of the student.   For instance, the essay might be too short or off topic, or the exam might be incomplete.

The student needs to upgrade through ABE or preparatory ESL courses/programs, such as Langara’s LEAP, LEPP, and STEP offered by Continuing Studies.

The student's writing shows ESL problems and the student needs to take ENGL 1107.

The student's writing shows some grammar problems, but the student either has English as a first language or has had a lot of instruction in English. He or she needs to take ENGL 1110.

The student's writing is borderline, and the student needs to take ENGL 1121 before or with ENGL 1127, preferably before.

The student's writing is at the college/university level and he or she is ready to take ENGL 1127.

The student's writing is very good.  The best course for the student is ENGL 1128 (though he or she may register for ENGL 1127 if he or she wants).

Note:  When a student writes the exam more than once, the most recent score counts, not the highest score.
