Abstract
The main purpose of the present research was to study the predictive value of the
Islamic Azad University’s Entrance Examination (IAUEE) in Iran administered to
those applied for English Language courses. It, furthermore, attempted to investigate
probable correlation between English Language students’ academic achievement
regarding their Grade point Average (GPA) and their entrance admission test results
and their sex, field of study, or age. To conduct the research, senior
undergraduate students who were admitted to study in all English language fields in
Islamic Azad University, Roudehen Branch were randomly selected. Data were
collected regarding their performances in Entrance Examination and their GPA
during the first three years of their study. Data analysis indicated that students’ total
score in IAUEE had a better predictive value than the English subtest score. Out of
three English majors under study, admission exam for ELT students had a much
more recognized predictive value than for students in other courses. Moreover, while
boys’ English proficiency subtest was a better predictor of their academic
achievement, girls’ total score proved so
