Q: When are FBISD's four CBE testing sessions?

Session 1 : first two Saturdays in December. Session 2 : February and March. Session 3 : April, May, and June. Session 4 : June, July, and August. Session 4 is highest-volume because it locks in fall placement.

Q: What is the passing score for a Fort Bend ISD CBE?

80% minimum — a student must earn a minimum score of 80% on the exam in a subject area to be awarded course credit for middle school courses. For grade 6-8 acceleration, state policy also requires acceleration when the student scores 80%+.

Q: Which FBISD testing session should I target for fall placement?

Session 4 (June-August) is highest-volume for fall placement. However, if score-return timing is a concern, Session 3 (April-June) gives more margin. Talk to your counselor about which fits your student's target school year.
