Dana,
 
Of course it really depends on how she plans to use the assessment and what she has in mind in terms of how it should look, what it should test, etc.
 
I think the GED test - published by a division of McGraw Hill - provides solid information on how well a students is comprehending, analyzing and applying information they read.  Almost any section will do because it's all reading based.  Feel free to write back.

I have a teacher looking for a good formal reading comprehension assessment to use with classes of high school juniors.  Can anyone recommend anything?  I thought adult literacy might have some knowledge of these.
 
Thanks,
Dana
