TEST SESSIONS Session 1 6 Short Passages (literary, informational, poems) 30 Multiple-Choice Questions SAT 10 (norm-referenced questions)

TEST SESSIONS Session 2: This session contains two passages of more equal length. A few passages in the passage bank are paired passages (i.e., 2009 grade 3 sample book, The Chickenpox Party). Each passage has ten multiple-choice questions; one passage has an extended- response item.

TEST SESSIONS Session 3: This session contains two or three passages. The shorter passages will have five multiple-choice questions. The longer passages will have ten multiple-choice questions and one extended-response item.
