Diagnostic tests
These tests should be a more finely-tuned instrument than placement tests, although, as noted above, for pragmatic and practical reasons, they are often merged. Their purpose is to identify strengths and, in particular, weaknesses in the FL, so that tutors can shape the syllabus to take account of what the diagnosis reveals, students can take remedial action and individual programmes of work can be designed.
