Biology 1 EOC
What do I need to know?
The state of Florida has instituted an End-of-Course (EOC) Assessment for Biology students designed to measure student achievement of the Next Generation Sunshine State Standards. During the 2016-17 school year, students taking the Biology 1 EOC will have the opportunity to test during one of the following administrations throughout the year:
- September 12–23, 2016
- November 28–December 16, 2016
- April 17–May 19, 2017
- July 10–21, 2017
Your exact testing date within these windows will be determined by your district. Some districts may have specific rules/restrictions for each test administration.
