About the KSA Math Grade 6 Exam
Kentucky Summative Assessment Mathematics — Grade 6 measures the Kentucky Academic Standards for Mathematics. This local 100-question bank is an English-language MCQ study adaptation. It does not replace worked solutions, modeling, technology-enhanced tasks, or constructed responses. It is not an official translation, format simulation, or substitute for the KSA.
Assessment
The official assessment is administered online at school and uses selected-response, technology-enhanced, and extended-response items, including quantitative reasoning and modeling. No separate assignment, oral examination, practical examination, or case study is required; extended-response and technology-enhanced items remain part of the official assessment.
Time Limit
120 KDE-recommended minutes across 2 parts; this is recommended testing time rather than a candidate-selected appointment limit.
Passing Score
KSA is not a certification exam and has no single pass mark. Results use four performance levels: Novice, Apprentice, Proficient, and Distinguished.
Exam Fee
No separate student fee; Kentucky's public-school accountability assessment is state funded. (Kentucky Department of Education (KDE))
