Frequently Asked Questions
What is the PERT exam and what does PERT stand for?
The PERT exam stands for Postsecondary Education Readiness Test. It is a standardized placement test used primarily in Florida to assess incoming college students' skills in math, reading, and writing to place them in appropriate courses.
How many questions are on the PERT, and what is the format?
Each of the three subtests (Reading, Writing, and Math) contains 30 multiple-choice questions. The test is a Computer Adaptive Test (CAT), meaning the difficulty of each question is adjusted based on your answer to the previous question. Once you select an answer and move on, you cannot go back to change it.
Who needs to take the PERT?
Any new or transferring student pursuing a degree at a Florida public college must take it unless they qualify for an exemption, like recent SAT/ACT scores that meet minimums (e.g., SAT Math 500+ or ACT Math 21+), high school GPA of 3.0+, or prior college credits. Check your school's advising office for specifics.
What subjects or sections are included in the PERT exam?
The PERT exam is divided into three separate sections, often referred to as subtests:
- Reading
- Writing (assesses English skills, grammar, and sentence structure)
- Mathematics
Is the PERT exam timed, and how long does it take to complete?
The PERT exam is untimed. However, most students take approximately 2.5 to 3 hours to complete all three sections. It is generally recommended to allow ample time to complete the test in one sitting to ensure optimal placement.
What specific topics are covered in the PERT Mathematics section?
The math section primarily assesses skills in Algebra and Geometry. Topics covered typically include:
- Evaluating algebraic expressions and formulas
- Solving linear equations and inequalities
- Operations with polynomials, factoring, and quadratics
- Coordinate geometry (slopes, graphing)
- Basic data analysis

It is highly recommended to study for the PERT. You can prepare by:
- Taking Prephow PERT practice tests to familiarize yourself with the format and question types.
- Reviewing study guides and materials that cover the core concepts in algebra, geometry, reading comprehension, and grammar.
- Seeking out online or on-campus tutoring sessions offered by many colleges.
How long are PERT scores valid?
PERT scores are typically valid for a period of two years from the date the exam was taken. Colleges will generally only accept scores that fall within this two-year window for placement purposes.
How can students best prepare for the PERT exam to achieve good placement results?
Preparation includes reviewing algebra and basic math concepts, practicing reading comprehension, and studying grammar rules. Online practice tests and study guides tailored to the PERT are highly recommended for familiarity with test format and question types.

I bought the Prephow PERT practice tests to prep for my exam and they were spot on. The math section coverage was solid, especially the algebra and geometry problems, and the reading comprehension passages were really similar to what I saw on test day. The writing questions helped me nail down sentence structure and logic. Passed on my first try and felt confident going in.
