It is interesting how the passing scores for the different states can vary so widely. Here is link to an interesting point of view on passing scores for the Praxis Mathematic Content Knowledge test 0061.

What is most important is that the students learn the material. You can have an excellent knowledge of the content but be poor at teaching the material. So a high score on the Praxis II exam is not a guarantee of success in the classroom. However if you don't a firm grasp of material, you won't be able to effectively teach the material. This is especially true for the higher level math classes such as Algebra II and Calculus.
