Praxis Physics 5266

Pass the Praxis Physics: Content Knowledge test with confidence

A focused prep app built around the official ETS domain weights — not a generic question dump. Flashcards, quizzes, weighted practice exams, spaced repetition, and statistics that show you exactly where you stand.

No payment at any step. This is a non-commercial project — the full tool is free, an email account is all it takes.

Everything you need to prepare, in one place

Built specifically for 5266 — not repurposed generic physics content.

Flashcards

Work through core concepts and vocabulary at your own pace, organized by domain.

Quizzes

Short, focused quizzes to check understanding topic by topic before you move on.

Weighted practice exams

Full-length exams built to the official ETS domain proportions — not a random sample.

520-question bank

A deep, exam-aligned question bank across all five domains — enough to avoid memorizing answers instead of learning physics.

Spaced repetition

Cards and questions you miss come back at the right interval, so weak spots actually get fixed.

Statistics

Per-domain accuracy and progress over time, so you know when you're actually ready.

Practice weighted exactly like the real exam

The five official ETS content domains, with their exact exam-weight percentages. Every weighted practice exam in the app draws questions in these proportions.

I · Nature and Impact of Science and Engineering 12%
II · Matter and Energy 15%
III · Mechanics 35%
IV · Electricity and Magnetism 21%
V · Waves 17%

Frequently asked questions

What is the Praxis Physics: Content Knowledge test (5266)?

Praxis 5266 is the ETS content-knowledge exam many U.S. states require to certify secondary physics teachers. It covers five domains — Nature of Science, Matter & Energy, Mechanics, Electricity & Magnetism, and Waves — in a computer-based, multiple-choice format.

How is 5266 different from the retired 5265 test?

5265 (Physics: Content Knowledge) was retired by ETS; 5266 is its current replacement and the version state boards now require. The subject matter is similar, but always confirm with your state's certification office that 5266 is the code they accept.

How long should I study before taking the exam?

Most candidates prepare for 3-6 weeks of consistent practice, more if physics coursework was a while ago. Start with the free 15-minute diagnostic to see which domains need the most work, then follow the weighted practice plan built around the official ETS proportions.

How does payment and access work?
