Saylor - practice test compare to actual test

[keepsingin]

Of the four Saylor courses I've taken, Princ of Marketing is the only one in which the proctored test was pretty different from the practice test. With the other three, including Comparative Politics, the practice test was right on . However, with the Saylor courses I've taken, you need more than just the right answer to pass the final; you need a good grasp of the concepts, terms and/or names presented in the practice test and unit quizzes because a lot of the time it will be the same material but presented from a different angle.

I'm sure they have more than one version of the proctored test, so everyone's experience may not be identical. But I've found that three practice tests pretty well prepare me for the proctored version. ...hope that all makes sense

edit: 64% is pretty good for your first time through...mine is usually a lot lower than that lol. I would advise scoring near 80 before taking the proctored final. Personally I like to shoot for closer to 90 because I hate test anxiety!
