How to work through the Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers (PARCC) syllabus
The outline on this page is arranged the way the syllabus itself is: subject, then chapter, then topic, then sub-topic. That last level is what most study plans skip, and it is where coverage actually goes wrong — a chapter marked "done" often has three sub-topics inside it that were never touched.
Weight your plan accordingly: Mathematics: Grades 3-8 Content carries 15 topics while English Language Arts / Literacy: Writing and Language carries 12. Giving both the same number of weeks is the most common planning mistake for Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers (PARCC).
The ~100 hour estimate above is a first pass only: roughly 45 minutes per topic plus 12 minutes per sub-topic. Revision cycles, past papers and mocks sit on top of that number.
