How to Download a Third Grade Practice CRCT Test

If you live in the state of Georgia and are the parent of a third grader, your child is going to take the Criterion-Referenced Competency Tests (CRCT). The CRCT is a state issued test that determines how each school system is performing, based on the knowledge demonstrated by its students (most states require a test similar to this). To give your child a leg up on the test and to ease his or her nerves, you may want to administer a practice CRCT test.

2. Click on the PDF test you want your child to take (such as geometry and measurement test 1 or grammar and mechanics test 1).

3. Select "Save File" when asked what you would like to do with the file. It now begins to download.
