How long after submitting everything did you hear back about your eligibility statement? Everything was received and processed 2 months ago but I haven't heard anything. Thanks :)
somedayIt takes a while during the summer months. You should be able to log in and see what they have received and entered. Check the tabs to make sure they have your transcripts and there is another tab for test scores. During jan/Feb the test scores took about 5 weeks for me.
flteacherIt would be great if you post the August essay topics. I already saw one set but trying to learn the other pair. I am running out of time. Thanks in advance and good luck to everyone.
User123Hi everyone. I take my exam in a couple of weeks. Any luck finding out about the reading passages for this month and the other essay topics? Someone had posted the first two pair earlier this week.
Hi everyone, any help would be very thankful. Anyone take the test on August please post the passage. I need to pass it by the end of August to be able to retain my position. Thank you in advance.
I am a career changer (to teacher) so I'm on the alternative certification track. I am so excited and I've even been taking classes on teaching (no credit classes, even!) to learn as much as possible.
In 2013, when I was testing the waters on this new career track, I applied for my Statement of Eligibility. It said the only requirement was to take my subject are exam. I had taken the CLAST prior to 2002 so that satisfied my GKT. I finally finished me K-6 subject area exam. I re-applied for my Statement of Eligibility in June and am still waiting. I am so eager and excited to apply for jobs!
However, I noticed something on the FL Dept of Education website: in 2014, the Florida legislature changed the provision of taking the CLAST before 2002 in lieu of the GKT. I was crushed.
My question is: do I now have to wait and take the GKT to apply for teaching jobs or can apply and take the exam at a later date?
I have tried calling the FL Dept of Education AND my school district's certification department and I can't seem to get through to a human so I need help! Thank you SO much!
School2018Once you have your eligibility form you can apply and have one year to complete GKT. I took the CLAST as well and passed it the first try. Don't be discouraged if you have to take come portions of the GKT more than once.
Good morning, please I appreciate if someone knows the topics for this month, August...could you post it...because many people want to passed the test too.
