    That helps, thank you! :) Also, if I passed the PACT in
    California (1 of 4 TPA choices, one of which is the edTPA) will
    that be sufficient? Anyone have success with this? I can't see
    why NY would have me redo the TPA my first year, if the
    California one is virtually the same (video component, 60 plus
    page paper, lesson planning, etc), it's just a different type of
    performance assessment.
