Florida Algebra 1: what a high-school score means

On Florida's end-of-course (EOC) exams, Algebra 1 is reported on a scale from 325 to 475 (2024 to 2026), and each score falls into one of 5 performance levels. Reaching On Grade Level, at 400 or above, is the state's passing level.

The score ranges changed during these years, so each period has its own table below, newest first.

Score ranges by performance level

2024 to 2026

From 2024, Algebra 1 has a new score scale (325 to 475) and new level names, so a score from before 2024 is not directly comparable to one from 2024 on. Percentiles are, because each year is compared with its own students.

Who takes this test

Grade 9 ELA and Grade 10 ELA include the students enrolled in that grade who took the state ELA test, as Florida's school report cards report them. Algebra 1 and Geometry include students who took the end-of-course test in the spring as first-time testers, in any grade, so middle-school students who take the course early are included and counted at their middle school; retakes are not included. Biology 1 includes students in grades 9 to 12 who took the end-of-course test, not middle-school students. US History includes 11th graders who took the end-of-course test.

Is a particular score good?

A score's meaning depends on where it lands in the ranges above, and on how it compares to other students who took the same test. Our free tool turns an Algebra 1 score into an estimated percentile versus the school, district and the whole state, so you can see where a score stands, not just its level.
