The Texas Examination of Educator Standards (TExES) is the exam series for teachers in the state of Texas. It is not one exam, but refers to all content tests offered in the state of Texas. TExES is an umbrella term for all the content tests in Texas, however you may only have to take one or a few of these tests. The test you take depends on the subject area you want to teach. All tests contain multiple choice questions, but some also have written and oral response questions as well. To learn more about your specific exam visit the TExES website.
