Test Assessing Secondary Completion

The Test Assessing Secondary Completion, or TASC, is a high school equivalency exam. It was chosen by the states of New York and Indiana as a replacement for the GED exam, effective January 2, 2014.[1][2][3][4]

The TASC is administered by Data Recognition Corp. and was created by McGraw-Hill Education.[5]

As of February 2015, the TASC is approved in 9 states (in the United States).[6][7][8][9]
