OSAT Elementary Education (150/151) Pass Rate, Format & Study Guide

A real reference for anyone preparing for the Oklahoma Subject Area Tests (OSAT) Elementary Education, Subtests 1 and 2 (150 and 151) — Oklahoma Office of Educational Quality and Accountability exam — pass rate, retake policy, how it's scored, and a practical study timeline. This is independent reference content, not a sales page: everything below is sourced from OSAT Elementary Education (150/151)'s own certifying body.

What the OSAT Elementary Education (150/151) exam is

The CEOE test page for Elementary Education lists Subtest 1 (Reading and Language Arts) with 52 selected-response questions and 1 constructed-response assignment, and Subtest 2 (Social Studies, Mathematics, Science, and Health, Fitness, and the Arts) with 66 selected-response questions. The passing score is 240 per subtest, and a candidate may bank a passing score on one subtest until passing the other. Computer-based testing has a total appointment time of 4 hours and 15 minutes for one or both subtests, including 15 minutes for the tutorial and nondisclosure agreement; online proctored testing allows 3 hours for each subtest plus 15 minutes.

Why it matters

The OSAT is part of the Oklahoma certification process for teachers, who must show subject-matter competence for the field they want to teach.

Who this exam is for

Elementary education students and career changers in Oklahoma preparing for OSAT fields 150 and 151.

Pass rate

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.

If you don't pass — retake policy

The CEOE test page does not state attempt limits or waiting periods; it says you may bank a passing score on one subtest until you pass the other. Confirm the current retake rules with CEOE before you rebook.

How it's scored

CEOE sets the passing score at 240 per subtest on its scaled score. The portal mock covers only the selected-response items, so it shows a percent score as a rough self-check and does not predict a scaled score. Format: 52 + 66 selected-response questions plus one constructed-response assignment in Subtest 1; the portal mock has the 118 selected-response questions in 240 minutes and does not include the constructed response. No official pass rate is available for this exam, so none is quoted here.
