The OG\u2019s covers some but not all of the common question types in the current version of the test, and lacks practice material for dual passages or graphics. However, it does have 80 nicely varied practice questions based on passages and short statements. And a pretty good set of explanations for the questions too!<\/p>\n<p>2) The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ets.org\/s\/praxis\/pdf\/5712.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Praxis Study Companion for Core Reading<\/a> \u2013 (to which I\u2019ve already linked above!) \u2013 this resource is a shorter than the Official Guide, but still sizeable for a free resource. It\u2019s a 64 page PDF that highlights every text type on the exam. It also features a good range of questions, with answer explanations. Best of all, it\u2019s completely up to date, accurate to today\u2019s Core exam format.<\/p>\n<p>3) <a href=\"https:\/\/praxis.magoosh.com\/\">Magoosh<\/a> \u2013 We recently released test prep for the Praxis Core! <a href=\"http:\/\/praxis.magoosh.com\">Sign up<\/a> to watch our Math, Reading, and Writing lessons! <\/p>\n<p>4) The new, updated, as-of-yet-unreleased 2016 official guide.
