Do I have to be enrolled in a university program?

Who should participate in this cohort?

Anyone who needs support with passing the Praxis.

What date does the cohort start / end?

Fall and Spring each run three 4-week cohorts across the semester. Each cohort's last session is its “end date.” See the full schedule below.

What time are sessions held?

Time depends on your grade level/exam. See the full breakdown below.

How long is each session?

1 hour.

Are sessions live or recorded?

All sessions are live over Zoom.

Is participation required during the live sessions?

Yes, participation is required during the live session.

What platform do you use (Zoom, Teams, etc.)?

We use Zoom.

Can I participate from my phone?

No — a desktop or laptop is required to fully participate (see “Do I need a computer?” below).

What if I miss a session?

Live participation is required, so we're not able to offer makeup sessions. If something comes up, reach out to your facilitator as early as possible.

Will recordings be available afterward?

No — sessions aren't recorded, since active participation during the live session is part of how the program works.

Is the cost really only $200?

Yes.

What does the $200 cover?

4 weeks of live instruction, a personalized 240 Tutoring plan matched to your diagnostic results, and built-in retest support if you don't pass on your first attempt.

What payment plans are available?

None currently — the program is pay-in-full at the time of enrollment.

How much is the down payment?

There is no down payment — the full $200 is due at enrollment.

Are there scholarships available?

No, scholarships aren't currently available.

Are refunds available?

No, the program is non-refundable once paid.

What are my chances of passing?

We don't publish a specific pass-rate figure, consistent with the program agreement — LRCE doesn't guarantee outcomes, since results depend on individual preparation and effort. That said, participants receive structured, personalized support designed to strengthen exam readiness.

Have previous participants been successful?

While we don't guarantee a specific outcome, participants receive structured, personalized support built around their own diagnostic results — not generic test prep.

What makes this different from studying on my own?

Live, expert-led instruction; a personalized study plan built from your own diagnostic results (not generic prep); and built-in support if you don't pass the first time — you're not left to figure out next steps alone.

How much time should I spend studying outside of class?

We recommend 1–2 hours per week outside of class.

Will I receive practice tests?

Yes — practice assessments are part of your personalized study plan.

How many spots are available?

There's no cap — everyone who registers is welcome to join.

What happens after I apply?

You'll register through a single link. That link includes your application, the Participant Agreement, and payment, all in one place. Once you submit, you're enrolled.

Do I need a computer?

Yes, a desktop or laptop will be needed to complete the course.

Do I need to purchase additional materials?

No, everything you need is included in your $200 registration.

I've already failed the Praxis. Is this for me?

Yes, this is for everyone.

My test date is months away. Should I still join?

Yes, this course can be helpful no matter when your test date is.

English is not my first language. Can I participate?

Yes — while sessions are conducted in English, reach out to us about your specific situation and we'll do what we can to support you.

I have testing anxiety. Will this help?

Yes — the Lab is built around structured practice, personalized feedback, and consistent facilitator support, which is designed to build your confidence and ease exam-day anxiety.

I haven't been in school for years. Can I still succeed?

Yes — many participants are returning to coursework after time away. Facilitators meet you where you are and build your plan around your specific starting point.
