A recent Announcement was posted on the HSE homepage regarding how to return unused tests to DRC, and that the calculators should be retained at current sites for ongoing use.  \n• The NYSED HSE Office will continue to grandfather passing GED® subtest scores (since 2002) and TASC Test™ subtest scores (2014-2021), with new passing GED subtest scores.  \nWill NYSED Rules for Testing Remain the Same?  \nYes, all “rules” for testing that are in the NYSED Regulations will remain the same.  \n• All examinees must be NYS residents for at least 30 days.  \n• All examinees under age 19 must have met Maximum Compulsory School Attendance Age (MCSAA) and submit documentation of age eligibility.  \n• Age eligibility documentation will become part of the GED Registration and Scheduling process, and is explained in the WebEx, Registration and Scheduling of Test Takers, Including Applying for Accommodations  \n• Examinees may take each subtest a maximum of 3 times each calendar year.  \n• Examinees cannot take the same subtest again within 60 days of testing (if failed subtest) .  \n• Also, there will continue to be no cost to the examinee to take the HSE Exam.  \n• Please note that COVID precautions must continue to be followed (for example, spacing/social distancing during testing, wearing masks, etc. ) as delineated by the test center in concert with their parent organization, as per state and local health department guidelines.  \nHow Do TASC Test ™ and GED® Differ?  \n• Both exams reflect core academic subject areas equivalent to the content in a highschool diploma.  \n• There are 4 subtests in the GED® vs. 5 subtests in TASC.  \n• The GED® subtests are 1) Reasoning Through Language Arts (RLA); 2) Mathematical Reasoning; 3) Science; and 4) Social Studies.  \n• The RLA replaces the Reading and Writing, which are separate TASC subtests.  \n• If only the TASC reading or writing was passed, the RLA subtest must be taken.  \nInformation About GED® Subtests  \n\n| GED® Subtest | Break out by Subpart | Total Time |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Reasoning Through Language Arts (RLA) | Section 1: 35 minutes\u003Cbr>Section 2: 45 minutes – Writing component\u003Cbr>Break: 10 minutes (computer automatically restarts test after 10 minutes)\u003Cbr>Section 3: 60 minutes | 150 minutes |\n| Mathematical Reasoning | Part 1: Calculator prohibited\u003Cbr>Part 2: Calculator allowed | 120 minutes |\n| Science | One continuous section | 90 minutes |\n| Social Studies | One continuous section | 70 minutes |\n| Total GED® Test | All four content areas.\u003Cbr>Please note that a score of 145 or greater is the passing subtest score. | 430 minutes (approx. 7 hours and 10 minutes) |\n\nOptions for Test Centers to Administer CBT  \n• Computer Based Testing (CBT) will be the primary method for GED® testing. Pearson VUE is the CBT partner of GEDTS.  \n• Test Centers which will deliver CBT at a primary location must apply to become an Authorized Pearson VUE Test Center (PVTC) .  \nThe following options will be fully explained once test centers engage in the PVTC onboarding process:  \n• A PVTC is an establi","cbCaitlcgJ0U5aYF","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaitlcgJ0U5aYF","pdf",394799,11,"English","# NYSED CBT Center Overview\n## Contracting Changes: GEDTS Vendor and TASC Replacement\n# NYSED Testing Rules\n## Eligibility, Attempts, and COVID Precautions\n# TASC vs GED® Differences\n## Subtest Structure and Retake Requirements\n# GED® Subtests and Timing\n## RLA, Mathematical Reasoning, Science, Social Studies\n# Options for Test Centers to Administer CBT\n## CBT Primary Site and Addendum/Mobile Sites\n# Steps to Become a Pearson VUE CBT Test Center\n## Application, Technical Requirements, Validation, and Agreements","[{\"question\":\"When does the GED® Test replace the TASC Test in New York State?\",\"answer\":\"The GED® Test replaces the TASC Test beginning January 1, 2022.\"},{\"question\":\"What key NYSED testing rules remain the same for examinees?\",\"answer\":\"Rules remain the same, including NYS residency for at least 30 days, age eligibility documentation for those under 19, attempt limits of up to 3 times per calendar year per subtest, and a restriction on taking the same subtest again within 60 days after a failed attempt.\"},{\"question\":\"How do GED® and TASC differ in subtests, and what happens if only TASC reading or writing was passed?\",\"answer\":\"GED® has 4 subtests versus 5 in TASC, and GED® RLA replaces TASC’s separate reading and writing subtests.
