Guiding Principles of EPAS
The EPAS tests are achievement tests. They are tests of acquired or developed abilities.
The tasks (questions) constituting all EPAS tests correspond to recognized middle and high school learning experiences.
The EPAS tests consists of complex, heterogeneous tasks that require students to use skills and knowledge developed over time to solve them.
Each test is developmentally appropriate for the grade level

Reading Between the Lines
Those ACT-tested students who can read complex texts are more likely to be ready for college
Performance on complex texts is the clearest differentiator in reading between students who are likely to be ready for college and those who are not. And this is true for both genders, all racial/ethnic groups, and all annual family income levels
![Page 18: EXPLORE Information Session Georgia Appalachian Center For Higher Education February 5 & 6, 2013.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062515/56649c7b5503460f9492e930/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Reading Between the Lines
More students are on track to being ready for college-level reading in 8th & 9th grade than are actually ready by the time they reach 12th grade
Not enough high school teachers are teaching reading skills or strategies and many students are victims of teachers’ low expectations

When students’ skills are improved during middle school, the
results by the end of high school can be
astounding
MAKING READINESS A REALITYMonitor College Readiness Early
Based on more than 540,000 8th graders whotook EXPLORE in 2007:
Majority of students are not on target in middle school
to be ready for college-level work after high school
ACT data suggests that students who enter high
school lacking prerequisite skills rarely ever catch up
