All 9th and 10th Graders take the UA+
The Utah Aspire Plus assessment is a hybrid of ACT Aspire and Utah Core test items. It is a computer delivered, end-of-grade-level high school assessment for students in grades 9 and 10. Utah Aspire Plus includes four subtests:
- Reading
- English
- Mathematics
- Science
Students receive predicted ACT score ranges for each subtest, as well as an overall predicted composite ACT score range. The assessment also provides proficiency scores for end-of-grade-level expectations for 9th and 10th grade students in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science.
Test Prep
The state has provided these resources for test prep. There are practice questions with answer keys as well as tutorials to help you learn to use the available tools on the digital test.
