FCAT
The Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test (FCAT) is part of Florida’s overall
plan to increase student achievement by implementing higher standards. The
FCAT, administered to students in Grades 3-11, contains two basic components:
criterion-referenced tests (CRT), measuring selected benchmarks in Mathematics,
Reading, Science, and Writing from the Sunshine State Standards (SSS); and
norm-referenced tests (NRT) in Reading and Mathematics, measuring individual
student performance against national norms.
