The TASC Exam Is No Longer Available

The TASC exam is no longer available. The states that relied on TASC (Test Assessing Secondary Completion) for their High School Equivalency exam have chosen different options.

In most states, students who already passed some subjects will be able to transfer their scores to their GED or HiSET accounts.
