What is passing on the Praxis 1 teaching exam?

Question

I have heard that it is similiar to the ACT. For those who have taken the test, what do you have to have to pass.

Answer 1

Each state has its own requirements for passing scores. Check the ETS site at the following link for score requirements for each state:

http://www.ets.org/portal/site/ets/menuitem.22f30af61d34e9c39a77b13bc3921509/?vgnextoid=d378197a484f4010VgnVCM10000022f95190RCRD

The bad news is that they do not give you any clue as to how many correct answers (approximately) you need to make a certain score, like an ACT practice test does. Unlike the ACT, each question is given an individual weight (probably based on the percent of test-takers that answered correctly).

Another thing you may want to look into is whether or not your state's licensing board will substitute ACT scores for the PRAXIS I (I know the state of Mississippi does that). However, some colleges require their education majors to take the PRAXIS I before entering upper level courses though.

Answer 2

As was said, the score requirements vary by state. If you go to www.ets.org and click on "Praxis" it takes you to a page that tells more about the test, including a link that says "State Requirements." Just select your state, and it'll give you the information you need.
By the way, I'd say the test is more like the SAT than the ACT, since it includes math, reading, and writing.

i stumbled on an extremely super internet internet site below. It factors all the grant help to could learn for and finished the Praxis examination attempt. From what i comprehend that's a attempt in audio and speech pathology. you could pass this attempt to pass directly to coach and you have a 2 365 days window to retake in case you do not pass in the previous having to refile returned. good success and chuffed examining. that's surely exciting and in the previous i study your question i did not even understand what a Praxis attempt became into.

Answer 4

It varies by state. Each state gets to choose their own cut scores. Now you can substitute high enough SAT or ACT scores for the Praxis 1. Look it up. It should be on the ETS website.

Answer 5

I found it very easy. I was out of college for 15 years when I took it and I got an almsot perfect score. In NJ passing is about 140. If you are concerned, there are many study books available at sstores liek barnes and noble and borders. Find one that has practice tests in it, and you'll do well!

Answer 6

I don't know, but don't worry about it. I thaught it was not as bad as the ACT...maybe because it didn't seem as long and it wasn't the first huge test I took. Good luck! Take your time on it :)
