Frequently asked questions about Missouri State Test Practice

What is the Missouri Assessment Program?

The Missouri Assessment Program, or MAP, measures student progress toward Missouri Learning Standards. Current Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education information lists Grade-Level ELA and mathematics in Grades 3–8, science in Grades 5 and 8, and required End-of-Course assessments including Algebra I, English II, Biology, and Government.

What is MAP-A?

MAP-A is Missouri's alternate assessment for students who meet the established eligibility criteria. Current official information lists ELA and mathematics in Grades 3–8 and 11 and science in Grades 5, 8, and 11.

Are these official Missouri MAP questions?

No. These are original supplemental practice questions. Use Missouri DESE information and official MAP resources for current blueprints, released materials, score information, accessibility supports, and administration procedures.
