Pennsylvania PSSA Grade 8 Math FAQ

What is the PSSA Grade 8 math test?

The PSSA (Pennsylvania System of School Assessment) is Pennsylvania's Grade 8 mathematics assessment. The linked activities are independent Grade 8 practice. Their question count, timer, scoring, and item types may differ from the official assessment. Use the directions inside each activity.

Can I use a calculator?

Calculator rules depend on the grade, assessment, test segment, and approved accommodations. Follow the current assessment guidance and ask your school which rules apply. A tool available in independent practice does not establish permission on the official test.

How long is each practice test?

Read the timer and question count shown in the practice activity you open. These are practice settings, not a statement of the official assessment’s duration or scoring.

Is it free?

The linked general practice and topic resources are available separately from optional books. Check each activity’s directions and access requirements. The study guide and bundle are optional next steps.

Are these activities official state assessments?

These are independently published learning resources. A practice score does not predict or replace an official state score. Use the directions in each activity and consult your school for official testing and accommodation rules.
