Hi Everyone,

I am in the process of studying for the Praxis II and PLT. The Praxis test is pretty easy to study for, but I am totally stressing over the PLT. It has been 13 years since I graduated from college. I freeze at taking essay type exams. Does anyone have a strategy that helped you take and pass the PLT test? Can I just take the Praxis and get hired for a job or do I do both? The state said that in order for me to get a certificate like AZ, I had to do both. Also, why do I need to wait to submit my application for a certificate until I took the test?

Any suggestions would be totally appreciated. :) Hope everyone has a great holiday season.

Sean I'm not sure what you mean by Ohio has the best schools. It has one of the worst public school rankings in the US. The schools are terribly run and poorly budgeted. No one should subject their kids to these public schools.

Sean Sorry, I cannot stop laughing. I mean, comparing anything to WV is like asking someone if they would like a meal cooked by Bobby Flay or eat their own feces.

Seriously though, there are some decent schools in OH; however, most of the schools here are subpar. It is incredulous with the teacher requirements that OH public schools are 40th o...See More
