Got a B
used instant cert but my secret weapon was not only taking the excelsior practice tests, but also saving screen shots of each question BEFORE answering.
So instead of taking this test one time, I got to take it as many times as I wanted with the screenshots serving as flashcards.
Screenshots are the way to go for practice tests
Good luck!!

Well I will say that I will not take any ECE test without first taking the practice test. To me, it was worth it. If anyone needs screenshot help, pm me.

To answer your question for the most part the answer is no. You may find one or two that match exactly depending on the test your taking. For some .. like the Ethics exam you will find alot of the same scenarios but they ask different questions then what are on the practice exam.. Your not buying the exam ..but seeing how well your prepared for the test and the style and content of the test. The very few that may be the same are just bonus.
Cheers.
