Kaufman Test of Educational Achievement—Second Edition Comprehensive Form

The Kaufman Test of Educational Achievement, Second Edition (KTEA–II)–Comprehensive Form provides state-of-the-art error analysis along with detailed prescriptive information for targeted, effective intervention planning. Easy to administer, score, and interpret, this outstanding instrument measures key academic skills in reading, math, written language, and oral language. Recently redesigned and enhanced, it meets standards for identifying strengths and weaknesses and diagnostic testing in an RTI environment.

Precisely Analyze Errors for Targeted Intervention

Appropriate for use with students in preschool and above, the Comprehensive Form presents composite scores for reading, math, written language, and oral language. A Comprehensive Achievement Composite can be computed for all examinees. Six additional subtests assess reading- related skills and give valuable diagnostic information.
