All quantitative questions had wrong answer options, hence I had to check each answer twice and lost lots of time due to it. I complained to Exclesior College about the discrepancy and they offered me a retest. The second time I faced a test like no other. They gave an exam heavily loaded with lengthy quantitative questions which is impossible for anyone to complete the test in two hours. It would have taken at least three hours to finish the retest. I completed the entire recommended Sears and Zemansky's College Physics in 13 months without any help and with self study and practiced successfully with every quantitative question but the questions in the test were lengthy enough even for the book. I would not recommend a UExcel exam but rather AP Exams, CLEP Exams and DSST Tests which are designed keeping in view the time window for test completion and are not designed to fail test takers for what ever reasons. After having scored really good in CLEP Biology, Chemistry, College Algebra, Precalculus and Calculus, I expected UExcel Physics to be on the same level but learned that it is designed to fail test takers.
Thanks much.
