The Versant for English test is presented by computer over 
the telephone using the Ordinate? testing system.
It tests your ability to speak English and to understand 
spoken English at a conversational pace.
You will need to read aloud, repeat sentences, answer 
questions, and build sentences.
Procedure. First, take time to read the whole test paper. 
If there are words or sentences that you don't understand, 
you may use a dictionary or ask a friend or a teacher for 
help. When you are ready to begin the test, use an 
appropriate telephone to call the telephone number printed 
on the test paper. When asked, you will enter the Test 
Identification Number using the buttons on your telephone 
keypad. You will take the test on your own by following the 
directions given over the telephone. Relax, concentrate, 
and do your best. If you do not know how to respond to a 
test item, just be silent or say ?I don?t know.?
Test Sections. The test has five sections (Part A, B, C, D 
and E) as follows:
Part A: Follow the instructions to read some sentences from 
among those printed in Part A. Read the sentences in the 
order requested, which may be different from the order 
shown. Read aloud as smoothly and naturally as you can.
Part B: Repeat each sentence you hear − exactly as you hear 
it. Repeat as much of each sentence as you can.
Part C: Answer the questions that are asked with a single 
word or a short phrase of two or three words.
Part D: You will hear three word groups. Say a reasonable 
sentence built from these three word groups.
Part E: You will hear each question twice. After you hear a 
tone, speak your opinion as fully and clearly as you can 
using the 20 seconds provided until you hear the next tone. 
Express your opinion and supporting reasons in clear, 
coherent English. Any opinion is acceptable. Speak for the 
whole 20 second period.
When you hear: ?Thank you for calling the Ordinate Testing 
System.?, the test is complete; you may hang up.
Criteria. Versant for English test scores are based on the 
exact words that you speak, as well as the pace, fluency, 
and pronunciation of those words as combined in phrases and 
sentences. Give quick, smooth, loud responses. Note that 
some test items have more than one correct answer.
Suggestions. Place your call to the Ordinate testing system 
on a good telephone in a suitable location. Choose a 
location that is quiet and where you will not be 
interrupted. At the beginning of your call, the Ordinate 
testing system will tell you if you are speaking too loudly 
or too quietly. Hold the phone as shown in the figure below 
and speak in a loud, steady voice. Use a push-button 
telephone in good working order that is set to ?tone? 
(not ?pulse?). Newer phones are generally better than older 
phones. Do not use a cordless, cellular phone, or VOIP 
phones. If you do not know how to respond to a test item, 
then remain silent or say ?I don't know.?
