Praxis Core Analysis

In order to attend UNLV or any other University and continue your bachelor’s education
in ECE, you need to pass the Core praxis exams. I think these tests are very important to pass
because they show your ability to retain information and knowledge regarding the education
field and the classes regarding Education at a University are much more in depth. These tests
give Universities a key insight to see if you’re ready to further your education in ECE, and
continue to strive for that bachelor’s degree. The qualifying score for the Reading test in order to
pass it is a score of 156. The score you need in order to pass the writing is a 162. In order to pass
the math portion of the Praxis, you need a score of 150.
I feel like personally I could have prepared a bit more for these exams. I followed the
links for the core prep for each section and read over the materials beforehand. I did some of the
practice questions and then I took the practice tests. I feel like I could have spent more time
reviewing the core prep for each section, as I didn’t do as well on the practice tests then I thought
I would. If I were to prepare again, I would have taken more time to study and review and maybe
created a study guide myself for each section. That would have helped me retain the information
more.
I had scored a 30% in reading with means I need significant improvement. I needed to
slow down and take my time when reading and prepare more. Some of the questions I felt were a
bit confusing, but I needed to go back and read the passage again. For the writing section I
scored a 48%, which also means significant improvement. For writing, I needed to study more
and take my time with trying to figure out with of the options was the correct one. Lastly, for the
math section of the core praxis, I scored a 28%. I have never been good at math, math is a
subject I have always had to really study for. I’ve always needed a tutor for math and needed
extra assistance for it.
I will need to study extra hard and review a lot in order to pass these Praxis Exams. For
math, I will need to use ed ready and try and get a tutor. I think a tutor would really help me be
able to succeed in the math department. I would want to register in the Praxis Core course
offered at CSN. I believe that class will be very helpful and useful to take. It will give me an
opportunity to learn about study techniques and the material needed for the tests. I also think
purchasing a study book will be very beneficial in studying and reviewing the materials ahead of
time. I think I will need a lot of time to study but I think it is possible for me to pass if I work
hard on it.
