Please help!
I have completed all test required for mathematics
teacher (7 -12) i.e praxis; APTTP Reading; math; writing
one time and got all score required, except the writing
portion. I've since repeated twice, and both resulted the
same score of 2. I don't know what I am doing that makes
this to happen. The other problem is that, there is no
sample audio that one could listen and practice. I will
appreciate if one can give me an advice about the writing
portion and where I can get an audio.

Thanks in advance!
Osman
