Things I Need To Know

I read about three important things that UMF Secondary Education majors should know:

• Praxis: I need to know the scores needed on both the Praxis I and II in the state if Maine. But one question I had was if a student gets three or less points below Maine's Praxis I standards, can he or she still take Practicum? I had been told earlier that a person could.

• Practicum: I learned about the different requirements needed for me to take Practicum next fall. I now know that I will have to get a C- or better  in both EDU 101 and SED 125, I needed to get a C or better in English 100, I needed to pass Praxis I, and I need to have a GPA of 2.0 or higher. So far I have finished all of these requirement except for my final grades in EDU and SED but I will find out those grades at the end of this semester. 

• Transfer Major: If I were not already in the Secondary Education major I would have to know the many things needed to transfer into the Secondary Education major. I would need a 2.5 GPA, gotten a C or higher in English 100, I would have already taken and passed Praxis I, and I would need to write an essay on myself.
