End-of-Course Testing (EOCT)

 

The EOCT program was retired after the November 2014 Mid-Month administration.  The Georgia Milestones Assessment System has replaced the EOCT beginning with the 2014-2015 school year.

The A Plus Education Reform Act of 2000, O.C.G.A. ยง20-2-281, mandated that the State Board of Education adopt end-of-course assessments in grades nine through twelve for core subjects to be determined by the State Board of Education. The End-of-Course Testing (EOCT) program was comprised of eight content area assessments:

 

  • English Language Arts

  • Ninth Grade Literature and Composition

  • American Literature and Composition

  • Mathematics

  • Math I/Coordinate Algebra

  • Math II/Analytic Geometry

  • Science

  • Biology

  • Physical Science

  • Social Studies

  • United States History

  • Economics/Business/Free Enterprise

 

The EOCT was administered three times each school year in the fall, spring, and summer. Performance on the EOCT was described as a scale score and performance level as indicated below:

 

For GPS based assessments:

 

  • Scores below 400 - "Does Not Meet Expectations;"
