PRAXIS II Required Tests
PRAXIS I & II Passing Scores

Candidates in all teacher licensure programs must complete the PRAXIS I skills tests in reading, writing, and math.

All candidates should take the PRAXIS II during their senior year and report their scores to the university and the State of Maryland.

The PRAXIS II specialty tests are required for the certification areas and graduation.

It is expected that students leaving Maryland after graduation complete these requirements before graduation and apply for Maryland certification.  

We recommend that you complete subject area content knowledge tests when you have completed all of your non-education major requirements.  Pedagogy tests should be completed near the end of your methods courses or early in your student teaching semester.
