The PRE consists of three subtests: Mathematics, Reading, and Writing. Together, the Mathematics and Reading subtests comprise approximately 85 multiple-choice questions. The Writing subtest consists of approximately 42 multiple-choice questions and two written constructed-response assignments. To pass the PRE, you must pass each of the subtests. If you do not pass one or more subtest of the PRE, you may retake only those subtests.  \nAlternative to taking the PRE: The Michigan Department of Education (MDE) has recently passed a proposal to allow students to use scores from the ACT or Michigan Merit Exam (MME) in lieu of passing scores on the PRE. Score equivalencies are listed below.  \n\n| ACT Score Equivalencies | MME Score Equivalencies |\n| --- | --- |\n| Mathematics: 22 | Mathematics: 1116 |\n| Reading: 22 | Reading: 1108 |\n| English + Writing: 24 or 22 if taken Oct 2013 or after | Writing: 1129 |\n\nThe MDE will allow a combination of all three sub scores (PRE, ACT, and MME) to meet their requirement. Please see your advisor or Katie Berger-Racine, Director of Teacher Education Student Services, if you think you are eligible to use ACT or MME scores in lieu of the PRE for your admission to the School of Education, Leadership and Public Service.  \nPRE scores for any one subarea may be within one standard deviation of the 220 cut score if the two other areas are met by ACT and/or PRE or a combination of ACT and PRE. See PRE Passing Score Alternatives.  \nTiming: A passing score for all subtests of the PRE is required for admission to the methods phase of the teacher education program. Please consult with an advisor to determine the best time to take the exam.  \nFor resources for your content area exams, please see the MTTC website.  \n\n| Subtest | Format | MTTC\u003Cbr>Resources | NMU\u003Cbr>Resources | Outside Resources | Timing |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Mathematics | Multiple-choice questions.\u003Cbr>A set of mathematical definitions and formulas is provided, along with a fourfunction calculator that may help you perform calculations on the test. | Study Guide\u003Cbr>Test\u003Cbr>Objectives\u003Cbr>Online\u003Cbr>Practice Test | Mathematics\u003Cbr>Tutor Lab | Math Practice Tests\u003Cbr>Courtesy of GVSU\u003Cbr>Video Tutorials\u003Cbr>Video Tutorials provided by GVSU Math Department\u003Cbr>Free online remedial courses\u003Cbr>Pre-college level math support.
