Re: Did anyone take the CST's today?
I did!! It was pretty dumb!!Why were there questions about gym, music and art?? I am a general/special ed teacher, i don't teach those things!! Did you think it was hard?? I thought it was a bit hard. I have absoluteley no idea how I did on it and usually I am pretty good at telling how I did on tests!!

Re: Did anyone take the CST's today?
I have no idea how I did at all. I thought the written part was really easy, but most of the questions were worded so strange that I have no idea how I did! I just hope I pass, because I dont want to take it again!

Re: Did anyone take the CST's today?
One tip I have is look on their website and look at the sample questions they have on there, the essay was the exact same type of question. It was on the same topic.

JUst like the LAST. What does that have to do with teaching??? I learned nothing in Grad. school that applied to that test. On the other hand, the ATSW was a whole lot easier.

Yes the website was helpful. Infact many questions were similar, so I am glad that I did those practice questions and read the answers.
The LAST was hard, I have no idea how I passed that one! LOL

Re: Did anyone take the CST's today?
LOL Those were some of the questions that had me laughing too! Some of my other favorites were about painting styles and techniques as well as 'what not to say on a job interview'!
HOW MUCH MONEY WILL I BE MAKING!!!!!!!!

Re: Did anyone take the CST's today?
i took both tests last year on the same day. omg, it was torture. i wanted to cry! it was ridiculous and torture b/c the questions could have had more than one answer and about two questions were related to special education! grr...plus, i had fh drop me off so i wouldn't have to worry about driving there and getting lost. but they kicked all of us out after we took the first test before we could take the second test and therefore, i stood outside for an hour and a half in the cold in march while ate my sandwhich on the concrete steps. grrr...

Re: Did anyone take the CST's today?
I took the ATS-W yesterday. I thought it was very easy and more common sense than 'teaching skills'. I wonder who makes these things up !!!
