Default Re: oral placement test

Welcome, dawnw.

Here are a few sources and resources:
Creating Placement Tests

Oral Placement Test and Oral Production Test
Here's how the TSE (Test of Spoken English) formats their tests:
TSE uses speech activities such as narrating, recommending, persuading, and giving and supporting an opinion to measure your ability to speak in English. You will be asked to tell a story, describe a graph, and answer questions. The session will be recorded and trained raters will determine your overall test score.

All the best
