System Requirements

A practice test is an informal simulation of the actual test and aims to prepare you better for what to expect on the real exam. A MeasureUp practice test contains around 150 questions covering the exam objective domains. In a MeasureUp practice test there are two specific test-taking modes to prepare students for their certification: Certification Mode and Practice Mode.

  • The Practice Mode gives users the ability to customize their testing environment. They can select how many questions to include in their assessment, the maximum time to finish the test, whether to randomize the question order, as well as select how and which questions will be shown in the test.
  • The Certification Mode reflects the actual testing environment users will encounter when taking a certification exam. They are timed and do not allow users to request the answers and explanations to questions until after the test.
