Student assessment is considered one of the most important parts of the learning and teaching process. In education, knowing how much students have achieved during their studies can be easily determined through the evaluation process. The present work investigates the LMD evaluation through first year students' attitudes. It attempts to provide a general overview of this newly implemented reform and its main objectives, as well as to define some key terms related to the subject. This research aims to investigate whether or not students are informed about the criteria of evaluation under the new educational reform. It should be known that students are evaluated and given marks throughout the semester through continuous assessment and at the end of the semester final examination. The survey was conducted using questionnaires to collect the necessary data. One questionnaire was distributed to teachers in the department of languages. Another questionnaire was administered to the first year students of University of Bechar- Tahri Mohamed. The questionnaire aims to assess students' attitudes towards the completely new reform and to see if they are familiar with the evaluation criteria.
