Some Frequently Asked Questions about the FTCE…
What is the FTCE?
The FTCE is a part of teaching licensure in Florida. In conjunction with the Florida educational Leadership Examination (FELE), FTCE scores are used to complete a state application for teacher certification. The exam ensures that the examinee has the skills and knowledge necessary to become an ESOL educator of students in Florida public schools.
What is on the FTCE?
You will answer approximately twelve multiple-choice questions (10 percent of the test) on geography, approximately eighteen multiple-choice questions (15 percent of the test) on economics, approximately eighteen multiple-choice questions (15 percent of the test) on political science, approximately thirty multiple-choice questions (25 percent of the test) on world history, approximately thirty multiple-choice questions (25 percent of the test) on US history, and approximately twelve multiple-choice questions (10 percent of the test) on social science and its methodology.
How is the FTCE scored?
On the FTCE, the number of correctly answered questions is used to create your scaled score. Scores are scaled up to 270. The score shows your performance on the test as a whole and is scaled to allow comparison across various versions of the tests. To pass the FTCE, you need a score of 200 or to answer approximately 74 percent of the questions correctly. There is no penalty for guessing on FTCE tests, so be sure to eliminate answer choices and answer every question. If you still do not know the answer, guess; you may get it right! Keep in mind that a small number of multiple-choice questions are experimental for the purpose of the FTCE test makers and will not count toward your overall score. However, as those questions are not indicated on the test, you must respond to every question.
How is the FTCE administered?
The FTCE is administered year round at testing centers located throughout Florida and across the nation. To register for a test and find a testing site near you, go to the testing center’s website. At this site, you can create a FTCE/FELE account, check testing appointment times, and take a tutorial about computerized testing.
