MobyMax's Mathematics, Language, and Foundational Reading modules are designed to automatically assign a placement test to students by default.  If desired, teachers can opt out of assigning a placement test to their students in a subject module and instead start them at a predetermined grade level or manually assign specific skills for practice. This provides flexibility in tailoring the learning experience to meet individual student needs.
