Georgia High School Graduation Test

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Georgia High School Graduation Test, or GHSGT, administered to all students in the eleventh grade, determines whether or not a student will graduate from a Georgia (USA) high school.

The test consists of five subject areas:

  1. English/Language Arts
  2. Mathematics
  3. Science
  4. Social Studies
  5. Writing

Students are expected to pass all five tests to graduate, but they are allowed to retake a test if they fail.

The test is scored from 400 - 600, with 600 being a perfect score. Students must receive 500 points in order to pass (this applies to every exam).
