TCAP & End-of-Course Practice Tests

Published March 8, 2012

A new online tool is available for students who want to sharpen their test taking skills.  The Tennessee Department of Education released a website where students can test their knowledge with practice TCAP Achievement and End-of-Course exam questions.

The TCAP test, which will be given to all students in grades three through eight later this semester, will cover the following subject areas: reading, mathematics, science and social studies.  End-of-Course exams will be given to high school students in the following courses: Algebra I, Algebra II, English I, English II, English III, Biology I and U.S. History.

Although many teachers will use TCAP and EOC practice tests in class, parents and students can use this application in preparation for spring state testing.

Here’s how to get started:

  • Go to www.pearsonaccess.com.

  • Select “Tennessee” from the program dropdown box.

  • Click the “Support” tab at the top.

  • Click the “ePATs” link at the left.

  • Narrow your viewing options by clicking the “Achievement” or “EOC” radio button.

  • Select the desired test to begin the application.

Detailed directions are also available with the practice tests.  The Tennessee Department of Education is planning to add more items in the near future.
