What is the cost of a teachers certification test?

The cost of taking a teachers certification test varies by state, as different states require different exams to become a teacher. For example, a general teacher's exam in New York cost $79, while the professional exam in Florida costs $150, as of 2015.

Prices for teacher's exams may differ based on how many attempts have been made, or if it is for a specific student group. Tests exist for specific age groups, such as early childhood or middle school, and there are subtests that have additional fees. The Texas teaching exam seems to represent an average cost for many states, with a basic fee of approximately $130.
