The 8th Grade Science Test Test

All these questions (and more!) can be found at http://www.tea.state.tx.us/student.assessment/resources/release/taks/2006/gr8taks.pdf How did you do? The passing percentage in Texas is approximately 70%. Any scores over 95% (depending on the year and the state's whim) are marked as "Commended". (I taught 8th grade TAKS remediation last year, so I didn't see too many of those!) Thanks for taking the test. Let me know if you have any questions or think you've found a mistake.
