| description | The use of standardised English proficiency tests like IELTS and TOEFL
for admission and placement purposes is widely practised in academic institutions
throughout the world. Similarly, in Malaysia many tertiary institutions
utilise the results of a localised version of such tests called the Malaysian
University English Test (MUET) as a measure of students’ proficiency
level, prerequisite for admission, as well as placement in various academic
programmes. The purpose of this conceptual paper is to investigate factors
that may influence the students’ performance in MUET examination. The
MUET bands of undergraduates from Faculty of Accountancy of UiTM
Kedah for the year 2011 and year 2012 shall be analysed and consequently
several recommendations shall be offered to improve student performance. |
