I had a stupid story about--oh wait. Not allowed to discuss the test.

ISTEP for Indiana, I think it means what it says...I step on a level or something?

My Spanish teacher gets on her period when we talk about tests, one time in fact I was talking to my friend about it an-*Spanish Teacher emerges from the ground and beats me*

We're taking our tests in June. We call them Regents, but idk why we dont get any special name for New York lol

Your school runs into June 0.0

In New Zealand, we have the 'National Certificates of Educational Achievements' (NCEA), and it's the same all over the country during high school in the years 10-13 (I think). I've never done them, as I've only just started High School and am in Australia now anyway (:(). But my sister did them for two years, and she just LOVED them. A lot of people in her year had panic attacks at school during the exam period.

Not sure what they have here, in Queensland though.

[I know you're talking about the United States, but this is still semi-on-topic.]

We have "naplan" tests every two years.

There a waste of time

Yea we started like September 9 or something and we're ending June 8th. But we also had a lot of days off throughout the year :)

In georgia Hs there called EOCTs (End Of Course Tests) they are the easiest thing ever concived. Yes somehow , we have a 60% passing rate.

The other bs thing. It is LITERALLY, impossible , to score above a 95.

Google the hare and the pineapple question.

we have "PASS" (palmetto assessment of state standards) aha its for south Carolina... then we have map testing witch is like a mini pass

In New York we take the ELA tests (English Language Arts) and EMA tests (Elementary Math Assessment). And no, I'm not in Elementary School. Elementary doesn't have to always do with Elementary School :P It can also just mean Learning (as in Learning Math Assessment)

Texas has STAAR tests. I'm proud that your state can spell correctly.

Same. =o
