Schedule test during the week, I’m told weekends are usually full and noisier

Verify address of location

Drive to location day prior

Get a good night sleep

Wear comfortable clothes

Arrive a few minutes early

Locker may be issued

Leave phone in car

Eat prior and take a snack for your breaks

Take water/Red Bull

Use restroom just prior

Area may be noisy—take ear plugs, their over the ear gave me a headache

Read question twice, answer in your head & choose if it’s a choice

Go with first choice unless you can prove otherwise

In "All of the above" and "None of the above" choices, if you are certain one of the statements is true don't choose "None of the above" or one of the statements are false don't choose "All of the above“

A positive choice is more likely to be true than a negative one

Don’t forget…too long to be wrong

Survey at the end will make your heart stop

One more thing…………..Relax!

Begins the Day You Pass the Exam
