Q:
What is the best way to assess the true education level of an adult who wants to go to college?
I've been asked to tutor an adult who wants to attend college. He graduated high school, but he says he was just passed through. What would be the best way to determine what grade level(s) he's really at? Thanks for your time.

Great question. There are numerous assessment instruments, but my favorite is the TABE (Test of Adult Basic Education). You can use their test, and they even provide review materials that might be a good way to get started. The publisher is CTB McGraw Hill. Please note link below:
