FRESHMEN TO PLAN PROGRAM OF STUDY This is the time of year when freshmen students areâ€"‘ concerned with the planning of their fourâ€" year high sthool program of study. To help the students plan courses of study in which theyâ€"are most likely to be successful, the research department, under the direction of Dr. Richardson, administers an apâ€" titude test to all students who exâ€" roet to begin the study of foreign anguage. All students who expect to take plane geometery are given geometry aptitude tests. The results of these tests are made available to the students and their advisers. Those who do well on the test can be expected to do well in the study of that course, while those who do poorly in,the test as a rule find the subject difiâ€" cult and uninteresting. Since a foreign language and plane geometry are not required subject, unless the student plans to go to college, it becomes imporâ€" tant for a student to know how well he is likely to suceed in these subâ€" jects if he elects them. If the sucâ€" cess in these subjects is doubtful, he mav. if ho chaoses olest athar ank. jects for which he has greater likâ€" ing and aptitude. It should be unâ€" derstood, however; that a low test score does not prevent a student from taking these subjects.
