  12. CAPT: Third Generation Who scores the test? • The CAPT testing contractor scores the test using trained readers – various sites throughout the country. • All scoring criteria and training materials are developed by Connecticut advisory committees/state department staff.

  13. The Mathematics test is administered in two 75-minute testing sessions and includes a combination of 24 grid-in and 8 open-ended (short-answer) questions. The grid-in questions require the students to compute an answer or solve a problem and then bubble the solution into a grid. The grid-in items are scored electronically as either correct or incorrect; however, there may be several correct answers for an item. The open-ended questions require students to solve mathematical problems by showing their work or explaining their reasoning. Open-ended items are scored by trained readers using a four-point holistic scale (0–3). A state Goal standard has been set for the Mathematics test. Students who reach the state Goal receive a Certificate of Mastery in Mathematics.
