Can you appeal praxis scores

More information about the specific costs of the exams can be found on the ETS website.

I understand that Praxis score reports are all now provided electronically rather than by US mail. Do you still have access to her official score reports?

If so, please look for the performance indicators they may be called something else, but they'll break down the performance by domains within each section of the test and let's talk about them.

In Louisiana anyone with a 21 or higher does not have to take them. Joined: Mar 27, Messages: Likes Received: 3. Jul 5, Did she take the paper-based test or the computerized version?

Anyhow, no offense to you or your gf but the Praxis I exams are really basic stuff and that applies to the math part too.

It's math that you should've learned before high school. Joined: Dec 21, Messages: Likes Received: 1. HMM , Jul 7, CherryOak likes this. Joined: Nov 18, Messages: Likes Received: 0. Jul 9, Did she student teach? My undergrad college didn't take ed. I'm surprised she was able to complete her degree requirements without having passed all three Praxis exams. I briefly looked over middle school math concepts up to Algebra I just to make sure I remembered formulas and how to solve problems.

It might help your girlfriend to do that or study a Praxis I Math review book. Good luck to her!!!! Joined: Aug 12, Messages: 4 Likes Received: 0. Aug 12, What State is your girlfriend in or What State is she trying to get certified in? I am going back to take the Reading and Math portions in September. I need two points for the reading portion and 5 points for the math, I'm an aspiring math teacher.

All I'm doing is: 1. Staying calm. Tell your girlfriend not to keep thinking about this test. Review the score report very closely, because it reveals specific areas that she can review. Review those specific areas.

IF it is inference infering what the author said in a passage review that area. Stay calm, she will pass this time. Hope this helps. God bless. Joined: Nov 6, Messages: 14 Likes Received: 0. Usually the test is taken before graduating from a teacher preparation program. Many schools have you take the Praxis Subject tests just before beginning student teaching. The Core took most of the attributes of the Praxis I. The multiple-choice questions exist in the new tests; a difference is in the essay question.

You can take the Praxis once every 21 days, not including your initial test date. Even if you canceled your test scores on the first test, you still have to wait the 21 days. These tests measure subject-specific content knowledge, as well as general and subject-specific teaching skills, that you need for beginning teaching.
