Praxis Core Exam Analysis

I plan to enroll in the Early Childhood Education program at UNLV in the
fall. Before I can take the early childhood program, I must attempt to
pass the Praxis. I will need to pass all of the Praxis Exams as I work
through the program. There will be a point where I am not allowed to
take any more classes until I pass the Praxis.
Exam Preparation
Before taking the exam, I read up on what exactly the test
entailed. The practice questions on the Teachers Test Prep website
were very helpful to me in studying for the test. I plan to study the
practice questions before taking each of the actual Praxis exams.
Exam Results
On my math exam, I scored a 79% which is borderline. The math
exam score shows that I will definitely need to study and work on my
math before taking the actual Praxis. My reading exam score was 82%,
which is likely to pass. Even though I scored a likely to pass, I will
continue to study for this part of the exam. I scored 78% on the
writing, which is borderline. I plan to practice my writing skills before
taking the Praxis.

Future Exam Preparation

I will need to continue to study so I can successfully pass the
Praxis exams. My goal is to take each exam one time, but I understand
that it may take more than one attempt. The study questions will help
me practice for each exam. I probably will not hire a tutor until I see
my test scores after taking each exam the first time. However, if I do
not pass the exams the first time, I will consider hiring a tutor at that
point.
