Practice Test Options

When you start a practice test, you choose whether to take the test in Certification Mode,

Study Mode, or Custom Mode:

■

Certification Mode Closely resembles the experience of taking a certification exam.

The test has a set number of questions. It is timed, and you cannot pause and restart the

timer.

■ Study Mode Creates an untimed test in which you can review the correct answers and

the explanations after you answer each question.

■ Custom Mode Gives you full control over the test options so that you can customize

them as you like.

In all modes the user interface when you are taking the test is basically the same but with dif-

ferent options enabled or disabled depending on the mode. The main options are discussed in

the previous section, “Lesson Review Options.”

When you review your answer to an individual practice test question, a “References” section is

provided that lists where in the training kit you can find the information that relates to that

question and provides links to other sources of information. After you click Test Results to

score your entire practice test, you can click the Learning Plan tab to see a list of references for

every objective.

How to Uninstall the Practice Tests

To uninstall the practice test software for a training kit, use the Add Or Remove Programs

option (Windows XP) or the Program And Features option (Windows Vista) in Windows

Control Panel.
