Before You Begin

  • Block out enough time—once started, the exam must be completed in one session.

  • Only click “Finish Quiz” once you’ve answered the final question.

  • Leverage the full 180-day access period – study and prepare without stress.
  • Review your study materials thoroughly—understanding concepts beats memorization.
  • Keep your study materials downloaded  – for future reference, even after exam completion.
