PARCC (the partnership for assessment of readiness for college and careers) is a new and innovative assessment system developed by a group of different states. This test doesn’t only measure the student’s knowledge but it also plays an essential role in measuring important skills such as critical thinking and problem-solving skills that the students usually need to succeed in the real world.
In simple words, the PARCC is a complete assessment system that is particularly developed by teachers for students. Students will take one assessment divided into two sections (one in early spring and the second in late spring). The purpose of introducing this test is to measure the student’s progress during the school year.

The teachers can use the test results of students to help them stay on track. The best thing about PARCC is that its assessments provide actionable data to teachers.

The first section deals with reading fiction and non-fiction passages from real texts. Moreover, the candidates are supposed to watch videos or listen to audio. The students should carefully study the given material as it’s used later to provide written responses with supporting evidence. In the second mathematics section, students solve multi-step problems that require mathematical reasoning and show their understanding of each problem.

However, there are some critics that aren’t in favor of this test and every year several debates take place between them and the praisers of PARCC. And that’s another major reason why PARCC is getting popular day by day.
