Presented for the COLLEGE READINESS CONFERENCEApril 20, 2013

P.E.R.T. Overview

CPT) Aligned with Post-Secondary Readiness

Competencies Computer adaptive with 25 operational

items for each area (Math, Reading, Writing) and five (5) field test items which are designed to continuously enhance the operational test bank

P.E.R.T. Diagnostic

Students who are placed into developmental education have an opportunity to take the (P.E.R.T.) Diagnostic to identify specific deficiencies.

There are two linear Diagnostic tests for each subject area - one for lower level developmental education and another for upper level.

P.E.R.T. is a Placement Test

A student cannot fail the P.E.R.T. Test scores are used to determine whether a student is ready for college level coursework. For those who do not meet the state established cut score, it is an indicator that additional preparation is necessary before entering college level courses. For high school students who do not meet the college-ready cut score on the P.E.R.T., the high school must offer those students postsecondary preparatory instruction.
