Many people ask me about the five attempt limit.
If you take the Core Subjects EC-6 exam five times and do not pass it, you can apply for a waiver with the state. However, there is no guarantee they will grant you a waiver to re-take the exam. If they do approve you to re-take it, you have to take a certain number of hours to get approval to re-test.
If you fail the Core Subjects EC-6 exam five times and cannot get a waiver or choose not to apply for one, you can still take a DIFFERENT TExES exam and have the opportunity to teach something.
If you fail more than one section of the Core Subjects EC-6 exam, it is best to re-take the ENTIRE exam. When you take an individual test, it counts as an entire attempt. So, if you fail Math and Science, and re-take those separately, you then have THREE ATTEMPTS. Instead, re-take the whole exam, and then you only have two attempts.
