About the Tests

In 2007-2008 North Carolina used End-of-Grade (EOG) tests to assess students in grades 3 through 8 in reading and math.
The EOG tests are standards-based, which means they measure how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of North Carolina.
Students must pass the grade 8 EOG test in order to graduate from high school.
The goal is for all students to score at or above the proficient level on the tests.
