   ECCE B6 Majors: take both multi-subject tests, CHED 1-6 Majors: take only Grades 1-6
   
   Multi-subject: Teachers of Early Childhood (Birth-Grade 2)
   Multi-subject: Teachers of Childhood (Grades 1-6)
   
   Each version of the Multi-Subject Test contains three parts:
   
   Part One: Literacy and English Language Arts
   Part Two: Mathematics
   Part Three: Arts and Sciences**
   
   Please note: Candidates may register to take all three parts at the same time or may register to take each part separately. However, it is less expensive to register for all three parts at the same.

*Part Three of the test is the same for all Multi-Subject Tests. A candidate applying for more than one Multi-Subject Certificate only need to take and pass Part Three once. All parts must be passed.
