Passing Score Requirements by State
Passing scores are not uniform across states.
Important: Passing score requirements for the TExES Science 7-12 (236) are set individually by each state or licensing agency. A score that meets requirements in one state may not meet requirements in another. Always verify the exact passing score for your state at ets.org/praxis/states before registering.
