AMS uses a computerized adaptive test called MAP (Measures of Academic Progress) which was developed by NWEA (Northwest Evaluation Association.)  MAP measures each student's academic growth from year to year in the areas of mathematics, reading, language usage, and science. In the MAP system, the difficulty of the test is adjusted to the student's performance. The final score is an estimate of the student's achievement level.  The advantage of this testing process is that teachers and students receive immediate feedback and can then personalize instruction based on the student's needs. MAP tests are aligned with the South Carolina standards.
