Taking the Knowledge Assessment (online and free)
VIDEO: Knowledge Assessment overview
If you do not have previous college credit, an ACT, SAT or PSAT score, or a cumulative high school GPA that satisfies the assessment requirement, you will need to complete the Knowledge Assessment, which is currently only available to take online. Your results determine which writing, reading, and math classes you'll take first. The Knowledge Assessment is free. Your score will be accepted up to four years after you take the assessment. As you complete the diagnostic part of the assessment, EdReady builds an individualized curriculum based on your responses. After the diagnostic, you have the opportunity to continue to improve your skills through Learning Paths to prepare for the courses in your program.
How to Sign up for the Knowledge Assessment
The following information includes an overview of Knowledge Assessment, instructions to set up your assessment account, goal keys to get you started, and what to do when you are done with the diagnostic tests.
