Praxis School Counselor 5422 Study Guide 2026–2027 | 200 Practice Questions

Prepare for the Praxis® School Counselor (5422) test with a complete study guide organized around the four ETS content categories, which mirror the ASCA National Model: Define, Deliver, Manage, and Assess. Each chapter condenses what the test measures into clear explanations, comparison tables, diagrams, school-based Scenario boxes, and Exam Focus boxes.

This 199-page digital guide gives the most room to Deliver, about 40% of the real test, and pairs the content review with two 100-question practice tests of exam-level, scenario-based questions on ethics, law, crisis response, counseling, data, and program planning.
