2014 TEXAS STAAR TEST – GRADE 7 - MATHTotal Possible Score: 54Needed Correct to Pass: 24Advanced Performance: 46Time Limit: 4 HoursThis file contains the State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness administered in Spring, 2014,along with the answer key, learning objectives, and, for writing tests, the scoring guide. This document isavailable to the public under Texas state law. This file was created from information released by the TexasEducation Agency, which is the state agency that develops and administers the tests. All of thisinformation appears on the Texas Education Agency web site, but has been compiled here into onepackage for each grade and subject, rather than having to download pieces from various web pages.The number of correct answers required to "pass" this test is shown above. Because of where the "passing"score is set, it may be possible to pass the test without learning some important areas of study. Because ofthis, I believe that making the passing grade should not be considered "good enough." A student's goalshould be to master each of the objectives covered by the test. The "Advanced Performance" score is a goodgoal for mastery of all the objectives.The test in this file may differ somewhat in appearance from the printed version, due to formattinglimitations. Since STAAR questions are changed each year, some proposed questions for future tests areincluded in each year's exams in order to evaluate the questions. Questions being evaluated for futuretests do not count toward a student's score. Those questions are also not included in the version of the testmade available to the public until after they used as part of the official test.The test materials in this file are copyright 2014, Texas Education Agency.
