MTEL crunch time

For my education major at Bridgewater State I have had to take several liscensure tests, commonly called MTELS (or Massachusetts Test for Education Licensure). In order to graduate with my degress in Elementary Education I have to pass three different MTELS. So far, in my third year at the college, I have passed two, and will have to retake one more to finish up. The cost of the tests can be high, especially if you have to take a test more than once to pass it, which has happened to me once. It is stressful to have a limited amount of time to pass the tests, and the content is often difficult. I am glad that I am two third's of the way done with the tests, but I am also worried about passing the last one in time for graduation (hopefully in May 2010).

  2. Good Luck! I've hear so many horror stories about those tests. In my major there are a number of pricey tests just like that so I know what you're going through. Just relax and be confident!!!

  3. I've taken all three of them, and while they're not easy I know that you will be able to pass. The cost is a little ridiculus but, theres really nothing you can do : ( You'll pass in time, just make sure you sign up soon!
