Exam Requirements
All students majoring in Nevada Education and Early Childhood Education must pass the Praxis
Core Academic Skills for Educators Exam prior to them being accepted into any Bachelor
programs at the University of Nevada Las Vegas, Nevada State College or University of Nevada
Reno. A passing score for the Reading portion of the exam is 156. A passing score for the
writing portion of the exam is 162, and the passing score for mathematics is 150. The tests can be
taken individually at different times, or all at once for a small discount in pricing.
Exam Preparation
I have not taken the Praxis Core exam yet. I took the Praxis Core practice tests and did
not do well. I read the examples for reading and watched some of the tutorials prior to taking the
pretests. I felt I had a good understanding of the questions and the material. I reviewed for
Exam Results
I have to admit, I was very surprised and embarrassed by my scores on the practices tests
I took for the Praxis core exam. I scored a 74% on the Math section, which means I am in the
Borderline to pass range. I scored a 74% again on the Writing section, that means I am in the
Borderline range to pass. I scored a 53% on the Reading portion of the exam, surprisingly, I
thought I did very good in, which means I will not pass the Reading portion and need significant
improvement.
PRAXIS ANALYSIS 3
After seeing my results from the practice tests, I ordered a book online to help with the
exams. It's a Praxis Core Preparation book with the best way to study and some practice tests and
examples. It also gives a strategy and what to look for in the actual exam. I am not a good test
taker and get severe anxiety before taking any test. I studied for three weeks prior to taking my
Real Estate Exam and passed with flying colors. I am going to do the same thing for the Praxis. I
am supposed to graduate at the end of this semester, so I am feeling extra stress since I did not do
so well on the practice tests. I will study and focus and hopefully do better.
