Are graduate students required to take comprehensive exams?
Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology Students
The Praxis II specialty area tests in Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology [known as the "A S H A Exams"] serve as the comprehensive examination for graduate students enrolled in these disciplines.
Master's degree students in speech-language pathology and Au.D. students must obtain a passing score on Praxis II, as defined by A S H A for the Certificate of Clincal Competence [ C C C ], prior to graduation.
Students are required to achieve the passing score in effect at the time the Praxis II is taken.
