For the 2027–2028 testing year: the NYSTCE Educating All Students test (Field 201), with writing workshops, four full practice tests, and 1,264 practice questions.
The EAS asks whether a New York teacher can serve the whole class, whatever subject they teach. You get 135 minutes for 40 selected-response questions and 3 constructed-response assignments of 150 to 200 words. Those three short responses carry 30 percent of the score, and each one follows a case built from exhibits such as a class description, a teacher's journal, data, or a draft lesson plan. This book gives the writing as much attention as the questions.
Built on the framework, one indicator at a time. The 62 content chapters cover all five competencies and each of the 35 performance indicators in order: diverse student populations, English language learners, students with disabilities and other special learning needs, teacher responsibilities, and school-home relationships. Most chapters open on a moment in a New York classroom, and each one shows the mistakes wrong answers are built on and ends with 12 practice questions. Competencies 0001 to 0003 start each set with short exhibits, so you get used to reading them.

Recent changes are in the book. It covers New York's move from NYSESLAT to WIDA ACCESS, the state's September 2026 memo on ELL identification, the second updated child abuse workshop, and the 2026 Title IX rule. Chapter 2 explains the 520 passing requirement on the 400 to 600 scale and the temporary safety net at 500, and Chapter 1 explains what is known about the revision NYSED has started.
Checked at the source. Question counts, timing, score weights, the $80 fee, the scale, and the passing requirement were read from NYSTCE's test page, test framework, and score report guide in November 2026. New York and federal rules were read in the published laws and regulations.
