College of Education Praxis CORE Information

Why do I need to take the CORE?
On June 4, 2014, 国家教育委员会通过了关于教师培训项目进入和教师认证的新规定. Praxis®教育工作者核心学术技能(Core)测试测试阅读方面的学术技能, writing and mathematics. 它们旨在为进入教师培训项目的候选人提供全面的评估.

Does everyone need the Core?

Students who demonstrate a score on the SAT, 参加考试那年的ACT或great或以上分数线不需要参加实践核心考试.

Cut scores for SAT, ACT, GRE:

  • SAT
    • If taken before 4/1/1995: Math 520, Reading 480
    • 如果在1995年4月1日至2016年2月28日期间参加考试:数学540分,阅读560分
    • If taken on or after 3/1/2016: Math 570, 610循证阅读和写作或30阅读部分
  • ACT
    • If taken before 8/28/1989: Math 23, English 20
    • If taken on or after 8/28/1989: Math 23, English 23
  • GRE
    • If taken before 8/1/2011: Quantitative 720, Verbal 530
    • 如果在2011年8月1日或之后参加考试:定量156,口头155

学生可以混合和匹配不同测试的分数,以申请豁免实践核心的三个部分中的任何一个:

  • To be exempt from the Praxis Core Reading, 学生可以使用SAT口头或阅读的合格分数, ACT English, or GRE Verbal
  • To be exempt from the Praxis Core Writing, 学生可以使用SAT口头或阅读的合格分数 & Writing, ACT English, or GRE Verbal
  • To be exempt from the Praxis Core Math, students may use qualifying scores from the SAT Math, ACT Math, or GRE Quantitative

如果你认为你可以因为符合SAT资格而免于参加实践核心考试的任何部分, ACT, or GRE scores, you will need to provide a score report and complete a Confirmation of Praxis Core Exemption form.

When should I take the CORE?
已经完成EC1和EC2以及数学140和215的学生应该参加CORE考试. Do not wait too long; students cannot continue into phase II education coursework until they have passed all sections of the core.

What is the CORE Test?
这是美国教育考试服务中心在新泽西和纽约的考点进行的一项电子考试. There are three separate sections; Reading (#5713) Writing (#5723) and Math (#5733).

如果在注册时选择了核心综合考试,则可以减少考试费用. 如果您注册了组合测试,请使用测试代码(#5752).

如果考生未能通过考试的一部分,他们可以重新测试该部分. 如果在同一天参加联合考试,则留出大约5个小时的时间.
