36 Assessment Guide for Educators: RLA CHAPTER 4Performance Level Descriptors Performance Level Descriptors Performance Level Descriptors explain the skills a test-taker generally demonstrates in order to score into one of four performance levels on the GED® test and the skills they need to develop to advance their score. In the RLA content area, the performance levels are driven by the level of complexity of the texts about which test-takers must answer questions. That is, test-takers are asked to perform similar skills with texts that vary from simple to complex. Therefore, each level description contains references to example texts that are typical of what test-takers can comprehend and analyze at each level. In addition, the performance levels represent a progression of skills, from most basic to most sophisticated, with each performance level building on the skills developed at the lower levels. The three performance levels for the GED® RLA test are Performance Level 1 - Below Passing, Performance Level 2 - Pass/ High School Equivalency, Performance Level 3 - GED® College Ready, and Performance Level 4 - GED® College Ready + Credit.
