The GACE Mathematics Assessment is a test designed for individuals desiring to become math teachers, in the state of Georgia, at the secondary level. The assessment consists of 2 different tests, which may be taken individually or together on the same day.
Both tests are taken on a computer and two hours are given to complete each test, with 30 minutes added for computer testing tutorials.
Each test is made up of 45 selected-response questions, such as matching, multiple choice and/or true-false questions.
The questions on both tests assess basic mathematics knowledge and skills, as well as applying these skills in a classroom setting.
Most tests also include some extra selected-response questions, which are not included in the actual test scoring, but are used to determine test-taker performance.
Test I is divided into 3 subareas:
- Number and Quantity, which is worth 30% of the total score
- Algebra, which is worth 40% of the total score
- Discreet Mathematics and Calculus, also worth 30% of the total score
Test II is also divided into 3 subparts:
- Functions, which is worth 40% of the total score
- Geometry, which is worth 30% of the total test score
- Probability and Statistics, which is also worth 30% of the total test score
Testing windows for the GACE Mathematics Assessment are offered year-round, with test results usually available approximately 2 weeks after specific test dates.
