FTCE Mathematics 6-12 Pass Rate, Format & Study Guide

The official FTCE test page for Mathematics 6-12 (026) lists approximately 50 multiple-choice questions and 2 hours and 30 minutes of testing time; break time counts toward the testing time. The passing score is a scaled score of at least 200, and the exam fee is $150. An on-screen scientific calculator is provided; you may not bring your own, and hand-held calculators may be available on request. The six domains and their weights are number sense, operations, and proportionality (8%), algebra (19%), geometry and trigonometry (28%), data analysis, statistics, and probability (19%), precalculus and calculus (16%), and student reasoning and instructional practice (10%).

Passing the subject area examination is one of the requirements for a Florida educator certificate in mathematics 6-12; the Florida Department of Education sets the full requirements.

Prospective middle and high school mathematics teachers in Florida who are preparing for the FTCE Mathematics 6-12 (026) examination.

The certifying body does not publicly publish an official pass rate for this exam. Be wary of third-party sites citing a specific number here — treat any pass-rate claim you see elsewhere for this exam as unverified.

The Florida Department of Education requires a wait of 31 calendar days before you retake a test you did not pass, with no limit on attempts; for this exam you retake the whole test, re-register and pay the fee again. Confirm on fldoe.org.

The passing score is a scaled score of at least 200; a scaled score is not a percentage of correct answers, so the percent score in the portal mock is only a self-check. Format: about 50 multiple-choice questions in 2 hours 30 minutes on computer; the portal mock uses 50 questions in 150 minutes. No official pass rate is available for this exam, so none is quoted here.

The content outline spreads questions across 6 areas: Knowledge of number sense, operations, and proportionality (8.0%); Knowledge of algebra (19.0%); Knowledge of geometry and trigonometry (28.0%); Knowledge of data analysis, statistics, and probability (19.0%); Knowledge of precalculus and calculus (16.0%); Knowledge of student reasoning and instructional practice (10.0%).

Taking the exam does not depend on a separate application; whether it satisfies a certification requirement depends on your route. The Florida Department of Education publishes the educator certification requirements.

The exam fee is $150 per attempt. A retake needs a new registration and the fee again, after the 31-day wait set by the Florida Department of Education.

The exam is not itself a certificate; certificate renewal and professional development rules are set by the Florida Department of Education.

Start with geometry and trigonometry, algebra and data analysis, then cover precalculus and calculus, number sense and student reasoning, and finish with the timed 50-question mock under the 150-minute limit.
