The CASA test is one of the subtests of the educator licensure assessment that teaching candidates must pass to receive teacher certification in Indiana. It measures candidates’ understanding of the state’s Rules for Educator Preparation and Accountability (REPA) standards.

The CASA exam is comprised of three subtests: reading, mathematics, and writing. These can be taken separately or together.

You’ll need to have clear and coherent writing skills on this section of the test. This includes eliminating wordiness, redundancy, shifts in point of view, and misplaced modifiers.

In addition, you’ll need to know the proper use of parts of speech including verbs, pronouns, adjectives, and adverbs. Figurative language, such as similes, metaphors, and personification, is also something that you’ll want to be familiar with.

The best way to prepare for the CASA test is to practice. Practicing with sample questions is a great way to get used to the test’s format, so you can focus on what you need to do when you’re taking it on the actual day. The more you practice, the less anxious you’ll feel when you’re actually taking it.
