About the Tests

• In 2010-2011 North Carolina used End-of-Grade (EOG) tests to assess students in grades 3 through 8 and 10 in reading and math, grades 5 and 8 in science, and grade 10 in writing.
• The EOG is a standards-based test, which means it measures 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.
