The Postsecondary Education Readiness Test (P.E.R.T.) is Florida's customized common placement test. The purpose of the P.E.R.T. is to determine accurate course placement based on the student's skills and abilities. The P.E.R.T. is aligned with the Postsecondary Readiness Competencies identified by Florida faculty as necessary for success in entry-level college credit coursework. The P.E.R.T. assessment system includes Placement and Diagnostic tests in mathematics, reading and writing.

Students who score a 97 on the Postsecondary Education Readiness Test (PERT) math sub-test will satisfy the Algebra 1 EOC graduation requirement after unsuccessfully attempting the Algebra 1 EOC.  Students can contact the Assessment Coordinator or their Guidance Counselor to register for the exam.  The PERT math sub-test consists of 30 questions and takes about 45 minutes to complete with results sometimes available as soon as the test is completed.
