Reciprocity Literacy Rule
GaPSC transition policy
GACE is now a program of assessments rather than one single uniform test. For 2026 prep, the most cross-field current change is the literacy requirement tied to Fundamentals of the Science of Reading (350): 60 selected-response questions, 90 minutes of testing time, $90 fee, and a 220 scaled passing score. Georgia’s March 24, 2025 transition policy also makes literacy a requirement for many candidates who began programs on or after June 1, 2025, for add-a-field candidates effective July 1, 2025, and for reciprocity applicants effective July 1, 2026.
About the GACE Exam

This practice bank is anchored to the current Fundamentals of the Science of Reading assessment (350), which is now a core requirement for many initial teaching pathways, while also explaining the separate ethics and field-specific content pieces candidates may encounter.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is GACE one exam?
No. GACE is Georgia’s overall educator-certification assessment program. It includes field-specific content assessments, literacy assessments, ethics assessments, leadership/certificate-upgrade assessments, and the paraprofessional assessment. This practice bank focuses on the literacy framework because it is the broadest current cross-field requirement.
How many questions are on the GACE literacy assessment?
The current GACE Fundamentals of the Science of Reading assessment (350) has 60 selected-response questions. You get 90 minutes of testing time plus a short tutorial and nondisclosure step before the timed portion begins.
What passing score do I need?
For the current selected-response literacy assessment, the passing standard is a scaled score of 220. GACE passing standards vary by assessment type, and some constructed-response assessments use a 250 standard instead.
What changed in 2025 and 2026 for GACE?
Pearson’s Evaluation Systems launched the current GACE program on July 1, 2025. Georgia also added literacy-assessment requirements for many candidates who began preparation programs on or after June 1, 2025, for add-a-field candidates effective July 1, 2025, and for reciprocity applicants effective July 1, 2026.
Do I also need the ethics assessment?
Many Georgia teacher candidates also need GACE Ethics for Teachers (351), which is a separate nine-module online training-and-assessment program with a 30-question summative module. It is not the same test as the literacy assessment.
What content matters most for this practice set?
The official 350 framework weights Essential Components of Reading at 67% and Assessment, Evaluation, Curriculum, and Instruction at 33%. That means most of your study time should go to phonological awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, comprehension, and then to interpreting assessment data and choosing evidence-based instruction.
