About the North Carolina EOG & EOC

North Carolina's End-of-Grade tests measure the NC Standard Course of Study in reading and math for grades 3-8, with science in grades 5 and 8. High school students take End-of-Course tests in Biology, English II, NC Math 1 and NC Math 3, which count toward their final grade.

Which grades and subjects take the North Carolina EOG & EOC

North Carolina End-of-Grade (EOG) and End-of-Course (EOC) tests, run by the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction (NCDPI).

  • βœ“EOG reading and mathematics in grades 3-8
  • βœ“EOG science in grades 5 and 8
  • βœ“EOC: Biology, English II, NC Math 1 and NC Math 3
  • βœ“NC Check-Ins 2.0 through the year, plus a Beginning-of-Grade 3 reading test

Format and timing

Tests are online unless a student has a documented need for paper. EOGs are given in the last 10 days of the school year; most students finish in about 120 minutes, with up to 180 minutes allowed in one day. The EOG is a multistage adaptive test that uses results from NC Check-Ins during the year. EOCs are fixed-form and given at the end of the course, with standard times from 120 minutes (Biology) to 180 minutes (Math 1 and Math 3).

Question types

  • Four-option multiple choice
  • Technology-enhanced items
  • Short constructed responses on the English II EOC (three, each worth 2 points)

What the results are used for

EOC scores count for at least 20 percent of the student's final course grade, with limited exceptions such as first-year English learners. The grade 3 reading EOG is also linked to North Carolina's Read to Achieve program. NC Check-Ins are formative and not used for accountability.

NC Check-Ins during the year feed into the year-end EOG, so the reports you receive in fall and winter are a useful guide to what to practice. In high school, remember that EOCs count for at least a fifth of the course grade. The study portal generates EOG-style reading and math practice and EOC review for Math 1, English II and Biology, with answers behind your parent PIN.

For teachers

Use the test generator for EOG- and EOC-style practice aligned to the NC Standard Course of Study: four-option multiple choice, technology-enhanced style items rewritten for paper, and short constructed responses with 2-point scoring guides. Build EOC review packets timed to the end of each semester.
