TASC Language Arts Reading Exam

Everything you need to know!

The TASC Reading Literacy Test lasts 85 minutes. It contains 48 questions assessing your reading readiness in alignment with the Common Core's high school college and career readiness standard. 70% of the exam comprises informational texts; the remaining 30% is allocated to literary texts. Both of these areas require students to demonstrate knowledge of key ideas and details and craft and structure skills. Students must also be able to integrate key ideas and knowledge into their answers.

You should expect to receive texts in stories, drama, poems, myths, and nonfiction. Acquainting yourself with these text types will help you build proper comprehension, analysis, application, and synthesis skills to guide you through the test items.

5 star review

"Dr. Donnelly is a wonderful teacher. He is quick to pinpoint weaknesses and, in many cases, turn them into strengths. He always has a structured lesson plan and pertinent homework assignments and puts aside time in the lesson to go over "trouble problems" from the previous lesson. I highly recommend taking a prep course with him. His patience, humor, and kindheartedness makes an otherwise uncomfortable standardized test almost enjoyable."

"Dr. Donnelly tutored my son. My son learned a few steps to help him solve the problems faster and correctly. Every lesson helped my son feel confident. My son constantly talks about how Dr. Donnelly has taught him skills that he is able to use in his classes at school. Dr. Donnelly was also very good at being able to work around a person's schedule. I highly recommend him, he is a great tutor. Thank you Dr. Donnelly!"
