The SLLA (6990) is ETS’s test for new principals and school leaders: 120 multiple-choice and 4 written questions in 4 hours, $425. You register on ETS’s School Leadership Series site, not the Praxis site, and states such as Louisiana and Pennsylvania list the SLLA beside their Praxis tests. 6991 is a different test, the School Superintendent Assessment.
