Is the Praxis 5205 hard to pass?

The Praxis 5205 exam is designed for educators who plan to acquire their reading certification. The exam covers a vast amount of content, ranging from teaching practices in the reading classroom to foundational skills in reading. Many of the questions are scenario-based, meaning you will have to identify best practices to use given a special education classroom situation.

How many questions do I need to get right to pass the Praxis 5205?

It is difficult to predict exactly how many questions you must get correct to pass the Praxis 5205 because a scale score is used rather than a raw score. This means that your raw score–how many you got correct–is put into a formula to calculate a scale score.

Does the Praxis 5205 study guide and online course have the same questions on the real exam?

While our study guide is aligned with the test, it is against testing policy to share items on the actual exam. State tests are secure, standardized, and heavily regulated. There are hundreds of test questions in the item banks for each exam. When you take the exam, your version of the test will be different from other versions and will have questions randomly pulled from the item banks.

Is this the best resource for the Praxis 5205?

Obviously, we believe our materials are the very best resource you can purchase to prepare for the Praxis 5205. The course is sectioned out by each content category, and within those categories we’ve aligned all of the information, videos, and questions with the test specifications and blueprint. This ensures you are studying what you will see on test day–nothing more, nothing less.

Does the Praxis 5205 online course contain practice tests?

Yes. There are two, full-length practice tests at the end of the study guide. There are also mini quizzes after each section. Finally, there are detailed answer explanations to help you understand why you got something correct or incorrect.

How long should I study for the Praxis 5205 test?

People have a range of skill levels when it comes to this test, so it is difficult for us to tell you exactly how long you need to study. Because this test covers an expansive amount of content, we recommend short, incremental practice over time. This is much better than cramming all of your studying into one or two weekends. Using 20-30-minute study sessions over a 2-3 week period is ideal.

What can I teach by passing the Praxis 5205 test?

States use the Praxis 5205 exam to certify their elementary reading teachers. However, every state has its own requirements for certification, so be sure to visit your state’s Department of Education website to find out exactly what you’re required to do before registering for the exam or buying materials.

What other resources should I combine this with?

Most states that use the Praxis 5205 exam also require prospective teachers to pass the Praxis Core and the Principles of Learning and Teaching (PLT).
