Like I had posted earlier...I passed Praxis I on the first time, took Praxis II for my content areas and passed, and I do not have to take Praxis III for North Carolina.
I am going into my 4th year of teaching now...so (shoot me in the head now!) I have registared for the National Board Certification program. The state of NC pays for it, unlike most others, and there is a huge bonus offered by most states if you are NBC. Has anyone done this? I heard it was a lot harder than Praxis II, but much like Praxis III? Has anyone taken Praxis III? Not only does this process require me to take another exam, but I also have to build this huge portfolio. I guess it will all pay off in the long run....
