The changes include having only 175 of the 225 total questions count toward your total score. The percentage for passing is still at 70%, and my calculator tells me that is 122.5 or 123 questions right. MH had a great question about the change in percentages/breakdown of the subjects. The ASPPB peeps have published the updates, which are fairly nominal (see pg. 22 to start the info on the subject breakdown). Also, I'm posting a message from the EPPP Prep group where someone said it so succinctly.
An interesting change
While looking through test data wondering about how the test will change in
August, I found an interesting site:
According to ASPPB the test will have the following weights
Biological Bases of Behavior 12% (up 1 % from last year)
Cognitive-Affective 13% (same as last year)
Social And Cultural 12% (same as last year)
Growth & lifespan 12% (down 1% from last year)
Assessment 14% (same as last year)
Treatment, Intervention 14% (down 1% from last year)
Research methods 8% (up 1% from last year)
Ethics 15% (same as last year)
which suggests more focus on Research methos and Biological Bases of Behavior.
Interesting,
xxxx
