About this book
Give your fourth grader the confidence to succeed on the South Carolina College- and Career-Ready (SC READY) Mathematics assessment.
This book contains five full-length practice tests — 300 questions total — aligned to the South Carolina College- and Career-Ready Standards for Mathematics and designed to match the format, difficulty, and content of the real Grade 4 SC READY exam. (This includes the extra field-test questions that appear on the actual SC READY exam, so each practice test mirrors the true item count and helps your child build real-world test “endurance” for the full sitting.)
Take a look inside
On test day: a full Grade 4 SC READY Mathematics sitting runs about 120 minutes.
