Scoring Information
The Praxis PLT 7–12 exam uses a scaled scoring system. Your score is determined by the number of questions you answer correctly, known as your raw score.
This raw score is then converted into a scaled score. The minimum scaled score required varies slightly by state, but in most states, you will need at least 157 to pass.
You can expect to receive your official score report approximately five weeks after taking the exam.
