The GACE® (Georgia Assessments for the Certification of Educators) is a series of tests designed for individuals seeking to become educators in the state of Georgia. These exams are a key part of the certification process, intended to assess the knowledge and skills of prospective teachers in specific subject areas, as well as their general pedagogical abilities. The GACE® includes a wide range of tests, but among the foundational assessments are those that evaluate capabilities in mathematics, reading, and writing, often as part of the Program Admission Assessment.

Mathematics: This section tests mathematical knowledge and skills expected to be possessed by educators at the early stages of their careers. Topics include arithmetic, algebra, geometry, and data analysis. The assessment focuses on problem-solving, understanding mathematical concepts, and applying these concepts in various contexts.

Reading: The reading section assesses comprehension and interpretation skills. It includes passages from a variety of genres and content areas, requiring test-takers to analyze texts, draw inferences, and understand central themes and ideas. This section aims to evaluate the ability to read critically and understand complex materials, which is essential for educators in any subject area.

Writing: This part evaluates written communication skills, including grammar, usage, and the ability to organize and express ideas clearly. Test-takers may be asked to respond to prompts that require persuasive or expository writing, demonstrating their ability to construct coherent arguments and narratives. Attention to detail, structure, and clarity is assessed, along with the mechanics of writing.

The passing scores for the GACE® assessments are determined by the Professional Standards Commission (PSC) of Georgia and can vary depending on the specific test. For the Program Admission Assessment, which includes the Mathematics, Reading, and Writing sections, a passing score is typically set at a scaled score of 250 for each section. However, candidates have the option to qualify by achieving a total combined score of 750 across all three sections, allowing for some flexibility in individual section scores.
