This is a test that is required by state departments of education of colleges and universities to measure the academic achievement and proficiency of individuals entering or completing teacher preparation programs. The PRAXIS tests are designed to be one of the final hurdles in your student career. Students may take any part of the PRAXIS exam separately or with another section. Over 44 states require the PRAXIS to be taken by students seeking a teaching certification. In addition, the PRAXIS can be taken approximately eight times during a calendar year. The questions focus on your ability to make decisions about relationships in data, sentence structure errors, and paragraph organization. The PRAXIS test requires that you understand the basic principles of Math and English and apply this to your academic skills.
