In short: to build Praxis Core practice questions, upload your study guide, class notes or your own summaries, and the AI writes practice questions with an answer key and explanations in seconds. The Praxis Core Academic Skills for Educators test has three subtests, Reading (5713), Writing (5723) and Mathematics (5733), scored on a 100 to 200 scale and passed separately. You can take the combined 5752 in one sitting or each subtest on its own day, and your state or teacher preparation program sets the exact qualifying scores you need.

What a Praxis Core practice question generator does

Test yourself on your own study material, not a set you have memorized

By the third pass through a Praxis Core prep book you start recognizing the answer instead of reasoning through the problem. You see a familiar algebra or grammar question and remember the choice, not the rule behind it. This tool flips the source. You upload what you are actually studying, a chapter on ratios and percentages, your notes on sentence structure or a reading passage set, and the AI can turn a document into practice questions that are brand new every time. A wrong answer points straight back at the subtest topic you need to review, and a fresh set is always one upload away.

Works with any prep book or notes

Upload a prep book chapter, your class notes, a math worksheet or pages you photographed. If the file explains a reading, writing or math concept, the generator can build Praxis Core style practice questions on it.

Target one subtest at a time

Shaky on the math subtest or on essay grammar and usage? Upload the notes for one subtest and narrow your practice to where your accuracy is soft, rather than re-answering questions you already have cold.

Fresh questions every session

Generate a new set every time so you are testing recall, not memory of a specific question. Repeated retrieval on unseen items is what lifts a shaky subtest above the qualifying score your state requires.

Praxis Core subtests, questions and time

The Praxis Core has three subtests with the question counts and time limits below. Use this as a study map and confirm the current details on praxis.ets.org, since your state sets the qualifying scores.

Subtest Code Questions Time What it covers
Reading 5713 56 85 min Reading comprehension, main ideas, inference and analysis of passages.
Writing 5723 40 + 2 essays 100 min Grammar, usage, sentence structure, and two 30-minute essays (argumentative and source-based).
Mathematics 5733 56 90 min Number and quantity, algebra and functions, geometry, and statistics and probability, with an on-screen calculator.
Combined 5752 ~152 + 2 essays ~4h 35m All three subtests in a single sitting.

The counts above are the standard structure, so confirm the current details on praxis.ets.org before test day. What matters most for licensure is the scoring. Each subtest is scored on a 100 to 200 scale and passed separately, and your state or teacher preparation program sets the qualifying score, which commonly falls between about 150 and 162. Because you can take each subtest on its own day, you can build a knowledge set from your notes for one subtest, drill it until your accuracy is even, then schedule that subtest when your practice scores hold above the line. That approach keeps a single weak subject, usually math, from delaying your entry into a teacher preparation program.

Simple process

How to make Praxis Core practice questions in 4 steps

1
Upload your material
Drop in your prep book chapter, class notes, a math worksheet or your own summaries. Scanned and handwritten pages are read with OCR.
2
Set the drill
Pick the question count and difficulty. Run a short warm-up on one subtest or a longer mixed set across Reading, Writing and Mathematics.
3
AI writes questions
The AI reads your content and writes Praxis Core style multiple choice questions with an answer key and clear explanations.
4
Review and repeat
Score the set, read the explanation behind every miss, then generate a fresh drill on just that weak subtest and go again.

Who uses this to prep for the Praxis Core

Prospective teachers entering a program

Future educators who need to pass the Praxis Core to enter or complete a teacher preparation program. Upload your study guide and drill the subtest that carries your weakest score, so test day feels like the practice you have already done.

Career changers returning to math

If you have been out of school for a while, the math subtest is usually the hurdle. Turn your algebra and geometry review into fresh questions and drill until the misses stop, before you sit that subtest on its own day.

Retakers lifting one weak subtest

When one subtest came in below your state's qualifying score last time, you do not need to redo all three. Upload just those notes and drill until your practice scores clear the line, then retake only that subtest.

Praxis Core practice questions, answered

How many questions are on the Praxis Core?
The combined Praxis Core (5752) has about 152 selected-response questions plus two essays across three subtests. Reading (5713) has 56 questions, Writing (5723) has 40 selected-response items plus two 30-minute essays, and Mathematics (5733) has 56 questions. You can register for the combined test or take each subtest on its own. If your notes are on paper, run them through an OCR tool like DocuOCR first.
What is a passing score on the Praxis Core?
Each subtest is scored on a 100 to 200 scale and is passed separately, so you must clear the qualifying score in Reading, Writing and Mathematics. Your state or your teacher preparation program sets the qualifying score, and the numbers commonly fall between about 150 and 162 depending on the subtest and the state. Always confirm your exact required scores with your state or program before you test.
How long is the Praxis Core test?
The full combined Praxis Core runs about 4 hours and 35 minutes of testing time. Taken separately, Reading is 85 minutes, Writing is 100 minutes (including two 30-minute essays), and Mathematics is 90 minutes. Because you can sit each subtest on its own day, you can spread the testing out and focus your preparation on one subject at a time.
Can you take the Praxis Core subtests separately?
Yes. You can register for the combined Praxis Core (5752) in one sitting, or take Reading (5713), Writing (5723) and Mathematics (5733) as individual subtests on different days. Taking them one at a time lets you concentrate your studying and retake only the subtest you did not pass, rather than repeating all three.
Is the Praxis Core hard?
The Praxis Core tests high school and early college level reading, writing and math, so the content is not advanced, but the math trips up many candidates who have been away from algebra and geometry for a while. Most people who struggle do so on one subtest rather than all three. Targeted practice on your weakest subject, especially math, is usually what moves a borderline score above the qualifying line.
Can I use my own study notes to make Praxis Core questions?
Yes, and it is one of the fastest ways to find your weak subtest. Upload your Praxis Core study guide, a math review chapter or your grammar and reading notes, and the AI writes fresh multiple choice questions from that exact material with an answer key and explanations. A wrong answer points straight back to the topic you need to review before test day.
Is this an official Praxis Core practice test?
No. PDFQuiz is an independent study tool and is not affiliated with or endorsed by ETS, which administers the Praxis tests. This tool generates practice questions from the material you upload so you can rehearse recall across the Reading, Writing and Mathematics subtests, and it does not reproduce real exam questions. Use it alongside official Praxis materials from praxis.ets.org, not as a replacement.
