CRCT Practice Online
Students will be taking the Criterion Referenced Competency Tests in the spring of 2013 in the areas of reading, language arts,
mathematics, science, and social studies. These tests will be based on the Common Core Georgia Performance
Standards (reading, language arts, and math) and the Georgia Performance Standards (science and social studies).
The Georgia State Department of Education has developed an online assessment system containing practice tests students can
take. The practice tests are based on the skills and knowledge that will be tested next spring and test items are
presented in the same format students will see on the actual test.
