Praxis I is required here in Virginia. But Praxis II subject tests are also required if there is one in your area. At the time, there was none for SpEd and none for reading, so I was exempt.

I know what you are talking about with the computer adaptive tests. That is just like the GRE. But the test taker said that the 50 questions or so were random and not based on how you did.

Our scores were similar; I missed 1 question and she missed 3. I want to say we needed a 221 to pass and I had a 235 and she had a 232. The scores were calculated and displayed in about 2 minutes after finishing.

Since she is my best friend, of course I gave her a hard time about missing more easy questions that I did hard ones. That's what friends are for. She is the same one I did the GRE with. Before we went in, I reminded her that UVA did NOT care about our analytical score, it wasn't counted, so skip that section and get to the quantitative. I did A B C D and got out in 3 minutes, she thought the questions were fun and worked them. Go figure, after 6 hours of testing, she gets to the end of the quantitative with a fried brain and is only half reading the questions that really count.

FWIW, doing ABCD on the analytical section of the GRE will earn you a 420. About the IQ of a animated turnip.
