Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)!

You are entitled access to your Test Prep Solution for up to 3 years from the date of purchase or until you pass your state assessment, whichever comes first.

Your program will prompt you to renew your access every 35 days. Renewing your product is free of charge. Your first 9 extensions do not require you to contact our office via email or phone. You have the ability to personally renew your access period online at expiration. Simply authorize your extension by checking all three boxes on the screen, then selecting "Grant Access." This option will automatically appear the next time you log in following your expiration.

Requests for the 35-day extension that exceeds nine (9) times will only be granted after you submit one of the following via email to sales@certifyteacher.com:

* A copy of your TEA ticket as proof of registration to the TExES exam

* A copy of your most recent TEA score results

* An E-mail from your campus professor, advisor, or certification officer

The registration ticket or score result information must show the candidate's name on it.

The E-mail from faculty must state the candidate is still preparing for his/her certification exam.

This is how we validate the legitimacy of the request and the authorized usage of the program. Only after verification of such will we be able to grant the extension requested.

For candidates: It depends on whether we have an affiliation with your program or university. You are welcome to contact us to check or you can reach out to your advisor or professor regarding this. If your educator preparation program does offer a discount for their candidates, they should be able to instruct you on how to apply the discount.

Our practice tests list the same number of scored questions as you will find on the real exam. Our test questions are 100% aligned with the TExES™ test framework. To reassure you're studying the content that will be tested on the real exam, in Skills Tested we show you what knowledge/skill in the state manual each practice question measures. In addition, we provide personalized learning based on your specific needs. When you're finished taking a practice test, our smart Score Report evaluates your results by competency and provides a comprehensive performance analysis. Then the system recommends assignments to help you master the specific content you need improvement in. Our Test Prep Solutions contain the most current core standards and testing technology used by the state, such as constructed responses and technology enhanced items. We've got the full package to help you be successful in your TExES™ exam on your first try. Let us help you.

We offer more than just practice exams. Our Test Prep Solution is a readiness review with incredibly realistic test questions and features that help evaluate candidates' proficiency with the skills and knowledge tested on the actual educator certification tests. The Test Prep Solution provides a set of features to help candidates focus on the specific skills and knowledge they need to improve on before taking the real certification exam. This program helps candidates cement knowledge and sharpen their test-taking skills. Some of the important features in this solution are:

• Study Mode
• Exam Mode
• Flashcards
• Performance Analysis
• Study Plan
• Study Plan Tracker
• Video Tutoring for Math Topics
• Exam History
• Test-Taking Tips
• Questions Reviewed by Domain or Competency
• Full and Detailed Explanations for all answers — correct and incorrect
• The option to test and retest with different question sets
• Large bank of questions
• Automatic Pass/Fail feedback
• Certificate of Test Preparation

Our minimum passing score is a 240, just like the state exam. However, we recommend all candidates to score a 290 or above on our practice exams before registering for the state exam. Aiming for a perfect score of 300 would be even more beneficial for candidates to feel the most confidence when taking the actual exam. Reaching just the minimum score doesn't allow the test-taker much room for error. Please note that some schools/EPPs have different criteria set for their candidates; please check with your advisor, if applicable.

There is no way to bypass the baseline exam in Exam Mode. In order for the study plan to be effective, the initial benchmark exam needs to be completed. The other modules will not unlock until the initial exam has been taken. Upon completion, the program will establish a starting point and tailor the study plan according to the candidate's strongest/weakest competencies and domains.

Unfortunately, Certify Teacher does not and will not have anything to support the Performance Assessment for School Leaders (PASL) that candidates must sit after they take and pass the TExES Principal as Instructional Leader (268) exam.

We do offer the option to extend the time on your exam! Please contact us at support@certifyteacher.com for more information on how to accomplish this.

Time is logged when any of the following actions are performed:

• Submit a full-length exam (to completion; score report is generated when complete)
• Submit a quiz to completion in Study Mode
• Submit a quiz to completion through the Study Plan Tracker
• Time spent on the Flashcards module

All of these actions are posted in the Exam History time log.

If this is occuring upon the last question of an exam or quiz, your next step to proceed would be to click on the "REVIEW EXAM" button, then the "SCORE EXAM" button. Please let us know if this does not resolve your inquiry.
