The general placement exam is designed to evaluate your Hebrew language proficiency. It is an online multiple-choice test. We will use your results to place you in the appropriate class according to your level. If you are a new candidate for a program at Hebrew University’s Rothberg International School (RIS), you must take this exam. Without it, we cannot reserve a place for you.
