The Biology High School Assessment is given in late-May, three hours in length, and designed to measure school and individual students progress towards Maryland's High School Core Learning Goals.
This year the exam will be administered May 20, 2014.
Traditionally the Biology High School Assessment contained multiple choice questions, called selected responses and questions requiring written responses, also known as brief constructed responses (BCRs), however this year BCRs will be removed from the exam. These questions are based on the content outlined in Maryland's Core Learning Goals.
