Assessment is a vital instrument for enhancing teaching and learning. In order to test our hypotheses, the researcher used correlational survey research. The data is gathered through the use of one questionnaire administered to forty (40) students of English in order to collect their attitudes and responses about assessment, Educational transition and its relationship with scores. The sample is chosen randomly. The results of analysis indicate that students have no idea about assessment although they have chosen English as personal choice to study at university; they did not know even how the curriculum is working. Moreover; they did not know exactly their purposes of studying English. The results show that students have faced different levels of psychological and academic problems. Multiple changes have to be introduced at both high school and freshmen years to help learners adapt to the requirements of highereducation.Key Terms: Assessment, Transition, EFLBaccalaureate Exam Scores as Predictor of First Year EFL Students’ Achievement The Case of First Year Students at M'sila UniversityThesis
