Make 7-12 Multi-Subject Math CST Score Fair

Make 7-12 Multi-Subject Math CST Score Fair

The Issue

STOP THE ASSAULT ON TEACHERS & STUDENTS: Dedicated and Hardworking people who study & want to become teachers are forced to pay thousands of dollars in pearson testing fees and prep. Several of the required test have been revised or provided with safety nets because they are bias. Unfortunately, the 7-12 Multi-Subject Math CST is a "new" test so it doesn't fall within the safety net parameters. The current passing score is 520 & the test has random questions and an obscure essay and no real study materials (ppl repeatedly receive scores within the 502-519 range-pay every time you fail same price). Please lower the passing score to 500! Even if you will NEVER teach math you are required to pass this test in order to receive your certification. HELP our students and future teachers. Lower the Multi-Subject 7-12 Math CST passing score to 500!!!!!
