For Your Content TExES
1st Attempt on Content TExES:
- To prepare for the TExES Content test students will need sign up for Certify Teacher and complete a minimum of 6 hours of practice. The discount code is TYLER4728. This
will reduce the cost from $80 to $35.
- Upon making a score of 240 on the Certify Teacher Practice Test the student may request to take the content test. Students will be required to send a screenshot with the score and evidence of six hours of preparation to Dr. Frank Dykes or Mrs. Cindy Sherman. Students cannot be approved to take the content test until a score of 240 has been earned on the Certify Teacher practice test and 6 hours of practice has been completed via Certify Teacher.
After you have met these requirements, complete the TExES CAT Registration form and submit to certification@uttyler.edu.
Before any Retest Attempts:
Schedule an appointment with Dr. Frank Dykes or Mrs. Cynthia Sherman to develop an appropriate remediation plan.
