Frequently Asked Questions

The Praxis 5007 is the Elementary Education: Reading & Language Arts and Social Studies subtest within the Praxis 5006 Elementary Education Assessment.

It is one of two required subtests for the 5006 series and focuses on two content areas:

  • Reading & Language Arts (approximately 65%) – 62 questions
  • Social Studies (approximately 35%) – 33 questions

Approximately 70% of questions assess content applied to a Task of Teaching, meaning you must apply knowledge in classroom-based scenarios.

Praxis 5007 is considered manageable but content-dense. It requires:

  • Strong literacy foundations (reading development, writing, assessment)
  • Broad social studies knowledge (history, civics, geography, economics)
  • The ability to apply content in classroom scenarios

Because 65% of the exam is Reading & Language Arts, literacy preparation is especially important.

With structured review and practice applying content to teaching situations, it is very passable.

The Praxis 5007 is 2.5 hours (150 minutes) long. With 95 questions in 150 minutes, you have approximately 1.5 minutes per question, allowing time to carefully read the instructional scenarios and analyze the answer choices. The test is computer-delivered and consists entirely of selected-response questions.

Your score report will be available in your ETS Praxis account on your designated score reporting date. The exact release date depends on the specific test you took and whether you tested at home or at a test center.
