Questions people ask before choosing this path
How much does a Praxis Subject Assessment cost?
It varies by test. Published fees include $130.00 for Special Education: Foundational Knowledge (5355), $146.00 for Speech-Language Pathology (5331), $156.00 for Teaching Reading: Elementary (5205), and $180.00 for Elementary Education: Multiple Subjects (5001).
How do I know which Praxis test my state requires?
Check your state requirement first and register by four-digit code. Test names overlap across codes, and states differ in which code they accept, so the name alone is not enough to identify the right assessment.
Is there one national passing score?
No. ETS reports your score and each state sets its own requirement, which is why the same score can qualify you in one state and not in another.
