Praxis I: Preprofessional Skills Test (PPST) Information
Passing scores on all three sub-tests of the Pre-Professional Skills test (PPST) administered by the Educational Testing Service (ETS) are required for formal admission to the teacher education program at Ripon College (See section on Admission to the Department .)
The PPST consists of sub-tests in reading, mathematics and writing. It is similar in form and content to the ACT exam many students took for college entry. You may take the PPST on one of the group test dates or at one of the computer testing facilities. The College offers test preparation materials and assistance through the Student Support Services office in Bartlett Hall. Students may retake any sub-test on which they do not earn a passing score. There is no limit to the number of times a sub-test may be retaken, although there is a minimum waiting time of 60 days between test retakes. Each student is responsible for having an official score report sent to Ripon College. Test dates, registration procedures and test information can be accessed at www.ets.org.
