✍️ Sample NJGPA Questions & Answers

1. From the essay: 'The researcher's findings were deemed spurious because the data had been selectively reported.' 'Spurious' means:

✓ false or not genuine; misleading

'Spurious' describes something that is false, fake, or based on misleading reasoning.

2. Which of the following best describes the role of a school counselor in NJGPA preparation?

✓ Helping students manage test anxiety and understand graduation pathways

School counselors support students by addressing social-emotional barriers to success and clarifying how NJGPA fits into graduation requirements.

3. A car rental company charges $40 per day plus $0.25 per mile driven. If a person rents a car for 3 days and their total bill is $270, how many miles did they drive?

✓ 600 miles

Let 'm' be the number of miles. The cost for the days is 3 * $40 = $120. The cost for the miles is 0.25m. The total cost equation is 120 + 0.25m = 270. Subtracting 120 gives 0.25m = 150. Dividing by 0.25 gives m = 600.

4. What happens if a student does not meet the required proficiency on the NJGPA?

✓ The student must retake the test or complete an alternative assessment.

If a student does not achieve proficiency on the NJGPA, they are not automatically failed but are given opportunities to meet the graduation requirement. This typically involves retaking the assessment or completing an approved alternative assessment. These options are designed to provide students with multiple pathways to demonstrate their academic readiness for graduation.

5. Which context clue strategy involves breaking a word into its parts to determine meaning?

✓ analyzing roots, prefixes, and suffixes

Morphological analysis — examining roots, prefixes, and suffixes — helps readers decode unfamiliar words by their structural components.

6. Which state agency oversees the NJGPA and sets its graduation requirements?

✓ New Jersey Department of Education

The New Jersey Department of Education (NJDOE) administers the NJGPA and establishes its graduation requirements.
