Are you not passing it because you don't know the material - or because the stress is making it too difficult on you to concentrate? Or... do you even KNOW why you aren't passing in the first place?
Are there practice exams you can use? Or copies of previous versions of the test? I'm not a huge math person either, so I feel your pain. I think at this point you should take a break for a day or two to regroup, then meet again with your tutor and try to remember some of the questions on the exam and work from there. So sorry hon. Keep trying and you'll get it! You sound like a smart girl, turn your weak subject into your strong one, you just need to figure out how!
I bought a Praxis Prep book and I have been studying that and they have practice tests in the book. I have passed the practice tests fine. But for some reason I think the pressure of knowing the importance of this test is keeping me from focusing. I dont know how to stop myself from freaking out over it.
ugh.
It sounds like your psyching yourself out for sure. Maybe you could try something like Rescue Remedy (talk to your doctor first) to calm yourself down before the test and help you focus.

Sorry, there are no users yet.
I failed a really important test and I may not graduate.
I am in my last semester at a Community College. I have 5 weeks left in this semester and then I am due to graduate and move on to the University as a Junior for my Bachelors degree. My major is teaching. (elementary Ed).
We are required through the state to take a Praxis test. Its a combination of reading, writing and math. In order to teach (graduate) we have to take and pass all three portions of this test. I have passed the reading and writing with no problems. Math is not my friend, we have never gotten along and of course I failed the math portion.
I have taken this math portion 3 times now. I have to keep paying for it everytime i take it too. I have a tutor, I have studied so hard. I feel like I know the information and of course when I sit down to take it, I feel like I did well on the question. Then I get my scores back and each time I am only 2-3 pts away from passing! They dont tell you what questions your getting wrong, so I dont know what I need to study harder on.
I took it on Saturday and failed. I cried all day long. I can take it again next month. I have 5 weeks left until I graduate and if I dont pass it this next time, I wont graduate and that means I cant register at the University.
I feel so defeated. I am a straight A student, I am on the Deans List and I still cant seem to get this test passed..
Any advice hive? :(
