to apply a test????
|
|
I just want to know dear friends if the use of this collocation "to apply a test" is correct. I feel it �s incorrect since I believe it is a literal translation Spanish speakers do. In Spanish we say "aplicar un examen". An action the teacher does, but is it the appropriate English form? I use administer a test instead...please make it clear. thnx! |

Give a test or administer a test.
Definitely not �apply a test �. |
