You can take the Praxis at any time.  I believe in a forum on Reddit there were some students who accidentally took it in undergrad and passed.  I have 2 Praxis Practice tests in PDF format if anyone is interested.  I can email them to you.  The closest thing to the real test as far as how it is administered is the $15-20 practice test ETS offers.  It is timed and formatted JUST like the real computer test.  

Take any time is great! Can I also take as many times as possible until I pass? BTW, I also sent a PM to you my email. Thanks again!

I'm also curious about the Praxis test. Can I take it before attending graduate school so that I have one fewer thing to worry about? How many attempts am I allowed to take the exam before I eventually pass? If I don't pass the test while attending graduate school, can I take it after graduation? Any impact from that?

Thank you for your advices!!

Hello, I'm looking for SLP graduate programs that don't require recommendation letters during the application process. Your advices are greatly appreciated!

[Rejected Offers Information for Waitlisters]

Declined an offer from Louisiana State University (PhD) and Ohio University (MA).

[Louisiana State University]

Any one hears from Louisiana State University? Considering it's already April 18, is it ridiculous that I haven't heard anything from LSU? No acceptance, no rejection, no waitlist notification, totally confused...

How about Binghamton?

[Rejected Offers Information for Waitlisters]

I have turned down an unfunded offer from U of Connecticut, and possibly another unfunded one of Oregon.

[What do we know? A gathering of data on various programs.]

Anyone has ideas on Binghamton?

[Political Science - Fall 2011 Cycle]

Wow, you applied to 18 schools with little chance, on your own account, of getting in? Don't take this the wrong way, but you must be incredibly wealthy and/or severely deluded. Sorry to have to say that.

I felt confident before realizing I screwed up the SoP. But it dawned on me that I had left a big defect in the essay and the schools had no reason to admit me based on that.

[Political Science - Fall 2011 Cycle]

A few days ago, you said you were going to apply for graduate school next year. What gives, mate?

yes. I saw little possiblility to get enrolled in this year, and I'll apply next year.

But I still wish I have some undeserved luck this year, but it seems that I haven't.

So sad, I've been rejected by 13 schools out of the total applied number of 18.

It seems I won't be accepted anyway and anywhere...
