GACE Content Assessments*

Passing scores on the relevant GACE Content Assessments are required for certification.  Candidates who passed the Praxis II tests in their field prior to September 1, 2006 may submit Praxis II scores instead of GACE Content Assessment scores.  Candidates who passed one part of a two-part Praxis II test prior to September 1, 2006, had until March 5, 2007 to take and pass the second part.  If both parts were not passed by March 5, 2007, the candidate must take the appropriate GACE Content Assessment.  With the exception of the content assessments for Middle Grades, each GACE Content Assessment consists of two tests; the passing score for all GACE tests is 220.  Middle Grades candidates should take one test in each concentration area.

Consult the Test Designs and Frameworks for overviews of test content.  Use the materials provided on the GACE web site to prepare for the tests.  Go to the GACE web site for test dates and online registration.

*Documentation of a passing TCT score in the appropriate licensure area may be submitted for an exemption from GACE Content Assessment tests.
