System Requirements

A practice test is a realistic exam simulation whose objective is 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. Each MeasureUp practice test contains two specific test-taking modes to prepare students for their certification: Certification Mode and Practice Mode.
