The Test of Adult Basic Education, TABE, meets the State of
Florida requirements for an entrance level exam for admissions to
Workforce Development Programs. Different vocational programs have
different TABE score requirements as determined by the Florida
Department of Education. Scores are given in numerical form. A score
of 10.9 is interpreted as 10th grade 9th month. This test can also be a
useful tool for those studying or practicing for the GED Test.
The TABE Test is given by appointment at Florida Gateway
College in the Test Center, building 015, room 127, 386.754.4333.
There is a fee associated with the test for admitted students and the
general public. A photo I.D. is also required at the time of testing.
Scores are good for two years. Currently, Florida Gateway
College is giving only the survey version of the A and D level of the
test.
The test is computer based, 4 parts, timed, and a diagnostic is
given with the scores immediately upon test completion.

Read the following passage and then answer questions 1-6.
The splintered steps leading to the tenement‘s entrance were
rotted and uneven. They led to an unlocked door which wobbled on its
hinges and shrank from its frame. It creaked open to a dank, dark hall
which smelled of urine and sweat. The paint was peeling off cracked
walls. The faint yellow light hung low in the night.
Mr. and Mrs. Gomes lived on the second floor with their three
young children. Their four-room apartment was immaculate and tidy.
The kitchen floor glistened, and the flowered plates and glasses were
neatly stacked in the drainer.
In the living room, the sheer curtains were always drawn back,
filtering sunlight throughout the room, passing over a color television
and several porcelain icons. Beside the freestanding gas heater was a
brand name stereo system recently purchased on an ―easy pay‖ credit
plan.
The soft pine floors were all warped but recently painted. The
wide floorboards, once loose in many places, were now nailed down
securely. Clear plastic sheets were tacked over the windows to prevent
heat loss.
The children, two girls and a boy, shared a large room with one
small window that was separated from the kitchen by a curtain. The
gas stove ―warmed‖ them at night. Their toys were piled high in
wooden crates. The children did not dare turn on the kitchen light for
fear that the six-legged, brown-bodied pests would dart out in front of
them.
The Gomes family had rented this apartment for ten years, ever
since they came to this country. They had known no other home,
although they had dreamed of many. Some day they hoped to live in a
quiet neighborhood with open yards and spotless sidewalks, where
people get into cars each weekday morning and commute to work.
