It has come to my attention that I can take the GRE exam to cover the math requirement for my teacher certification.

It is a bit over 200$ but I think it might be worth it.

For those of you who might not know what the GRE exam is, it is the exam you need to get in graduate school/programs.

You receive a score and you can't fail it because of that. Think of it as an SAT exam for college admission.

Now, I do eventually want to go to Grad school anyway but the fact that this exam could cover the math requirement is significant because of my low confidence when it comes to mathematics.

Just a bit of context, according to the FLDOE (Florida Department of Education) I would need a GRE Quantitative Reasoning (which is the GRE math exam) scaled score of 147 to cover that math.

I think I could do it.

UPDATE TO THIS DRAFT

So after I wrote up this draft (cause I was not going to delete this and write a new one)

It turns out that the information from the FLDOE is true. It is on both the FLDOE website and the one from the FTCE (Florida Teacher Certification Exam) Website.

This is HUGE information and it makes me wonder:.

Did they do this because teachers and prospective teachers are consistently failing the General Knowledge Exam?

Did they do this because it has become difficult to find times and locations to take the exam?

Will these questions get answered? Probably not.

But will I study the GRE Mathematics and take that exam?

HELL YES!!!!!!!

Florida is a national leader in education. Florida students are closing the achievement gap, improving graduation rates, and taking more Advanced Placement and STEM courses. A great education starts with high academic standards, rigorous courses and dedicated educators ready to help each student reach his or her full potential by preparing them for the colleges and workplaces of tomorrow.

Extensive research on infant brain development shows that a child’s first five years are the most important time for learning. Children grow at their own pace, but getting help early places them on the right path to learn and develop at their full potential.

The Florida Early Learning and Developmental Standards for Four-Year-Olds (2011) describe skills that four-year-olds should know and be able to do by the end of their prekindergarten year. Standards and benchmarks are organized into five domains.

Physical Development.

Approaches to Learning.

Social and Emotional Development.

Language, Communication and Emergent Literacy.

Cognitive Development and General Knowledge.
