ParaPathways has two subtests, scored separately: Reading & Writing (51 questions, 85 minutes) and Mathematics (36 questions, 60 minutes). The ParaPro Assessment it replaced was last administered August 31, 2026.
2 What score do I need to pass?

View requirements by state β 3 Can I retake the test if I fail?
The ParaPro can no longer be taken, but you can retake ParaPathways: ETS allows one retake right away, and after that you wait 21 days after your most recent attempt. Ask your state whether a subtest you already passed still counts.

Every study guide is free to read. Practice Test 1 and the timed exam simulation are free with an account: an email address, no password and no credit card. Practice Tests 2-5 come with the ParaPathways study book. There are no ads on the site.
