MET Go! Digital LISTENING (30 questions)
The MET Go! Digital Listening Section reflects language used in real-life situations. It contains parts and assesses the ability of test takers to understand a variety of speech in public, personal, and educational contexts. Test takers identify people in a picture based on descriptions, respond to short questions, answer questions about conversations, and answer questions about announcements made by a single speaker.
The content covers a variety of listening skills:
- Global skills that test comprehension of the entire passage, such as asking for the main idea.
- Local skills that test a part of the passage, such as a detail mentioned by the speaker.
The audio for each question is played twice. The listening section is scored automatically (by computer) by Michigan Language Assessment.
Part 1 (4 questions): Short descriptions are matched with people in a picture.
Part 2 (4 questions): Short questions are each followed by three response choices.
Part 3 (4 questions): Short recorded conversations are each followed by a question. The three (3) answer choices are shown as pictures.
Part 4 (9 questions): Longer conversations between two people are each followed by several questions.
Part 5 (9 questions): Short announcements delivered by a single speaker are each followed by several questions.
Time: 30 minutes
MET Go! Digital READING (30 questions)
MET Go! Digital Reading items reflect language used in real-life situations. The content covers skills similar to those in the listening section: global and local. Part 1 features one-sentence grammar and vocabulary items centered around a single theme, each containing a blank. Part 2 features four reading passages, informational and narrative, each followed by several multiple-choice questions. All reading passages are supported by a graphic.
The reading section is scored automatically (by computer) by Michigan Language Assessment.
Part 1 (16 questions): An incomplete sentence is followed by a choice of three (3) words or phrases to complete it. Each sentence tests either grammar or vocabulary using a thematically related set of questions supported by a single picture.
Part 2 (14 questions / 4 sets): Two (2) informational texts and two (2) narrative texts are each followed by several questions.
Time: 30 minutes
MET Go! Digital WRITING
The MET Go! Digital Writing Section consists of three separate tasks to cover a range of writing types and functions. Test takers describe a sequential narration of familiar events, write about a personal experience, and express a preference or opinion.
There are no word limits for the three (3) parts of the test, but test takers are advised to write at least twenty (20) words for part 1, one (1) paragraph for part 2, and two (2) paragraphs for part 3.
3 Parts: Test takers write a short narrative description, share an experience, and provide their opinion in three (3) tasks.
Time: 30 minutes
MET Go! Digital SPEAKING
The optional MET Go! Digital Speaking Section lets test takers demonstrate their ability to compare two (2) pictures, describe a picture, and talk about their experiences and preferences. The three (3) stages of the test build on each other; as the test progresses, the linguistic and interactional demands become increasingly more challenging. Τhe questions are presented onscreen and test takers record their responses.
3 Stages: Test takers first have an informal and ungraded warmup, and then proceed to a structured, multistage speaking task.
Time: 7-10 minutes
