The practice exam is designed to give candidates a feeling for the format and style of test questions and the breadth of the subject matter in the test (90 questions that are not broken into smaller stand-alone sections). It is delivered in a similar format to the certification exam. The practice exam does not provide numeric scoring because performance on the practice exam does not guarantee passing results on the certification exam.

Following completion of the practice exam, candidates receive a performance report with recommended areas for improvement. The recommendations are based on how well candidates perform in each content area of the examination:

• Areas in which candidates perform well receive feedback that some additional review is recommended for continued success;

• Areas in which performance was marginal receive feedback that additional study is needed for moderate improvement; and

• Areas in which performance was weak receive feedback that significant study is needed for considerable improvement. 

All test takers are encouraged to review the Kryterion Testing Instructions & Rules, which must be acknowledged on the Exam Pre-launch page prior to accessing the exam. Failure to comply with the instructions provided may result in exam termination, and we are unable to waive fees for future exams in these cases.
