Some states have the same exams which are the PRAXIS series. In that case you have to meet their passing score (they are all about the same) and send copies of your scores to that state education department. Unfortunately some states have altogether different tests, but they all ask similar questions.

You can usually find any specifics out of that states education website. It isn’t too difficult of a process, trust me. Best of Luck!

But if your going to California your screwed. Cali requires. Post grad work to get your credential in the specific area of teaching in the meentime you are required to do unpaid student teaching, then pass a CBEST (california basic educaional skills test) The CBEST is pretty easy. Then after that you have to pass the CSET tests designed for a teacher’s specific area…(chemistry, multiple subject, math.)

After all that our public education is still a bad joke. Stay away from california
