System Requirements

Practice tests are an informal exam simulation of the actual test that are designed to prepare you better for what to expect on the real exam. A MeasureUp practice test contains approximately 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 allows users to highly customize the testing environment. They may choose how many questions they want to include in their assessment, the maximum time allowed to complete the test, the possibility to randomize the question order, and select how and which questions will be shown in the test.
  • The Certification Mode simulates the actual testing environment users will encounter when taking a certification exam. They are timed and prevent users from requesting the answers and explanations to questions until after the test.
