It is easy for you. My SIL is a brilliant teacher but she had some trouble taking it. Took her 5x before she finally passed. Some people are awful at tests or have test anxiety.

Yes. Exactly my point. It is a standardized test and teachers must pass 2 of them outside their classes and majors.

Drop the Praxis tests and have other quality control measures other than a standardized test.

Reply to Why does PA allow my “township” to charge me $6 for a trash bag???? Wtf? by [deleted]

Is there an alternative trash provider with better options? In my area, 3 private companies are competing with the township. It is like the cable companies you have to jump around every year or 2 to get the best price.

The more rural the place the more affordable the housing. West Chester is expensive.

I went to and loved Ship. Went for my bachelors and enjoyed how quiet it is. I am from the Burbs of Philly so it was a nice change of pace. My SIL went to and loved WCU.
