NEW AzMERIT Sample Tests
NEW Sample Tests are now available on the AzMERIT portal at azmeritportal.org. There is a sample test for each grade/subject combination and for each EOC test. These sample tests are approximately one half length tests, match the test blueprint, and include the same item types as those on the operational tests. Answer keys are provided in ancillary Scoring Guides along with the “Guide to the Sample Test” document.
