doing on this material?&#8221; After each question, you are asked to rate how much mental effort it took you to accomplish that last question. You rate this on a 5-point scale from not much at all to a large amount of effort.<\/p>\n<p>The Examinations Institute developed this method using paper-and-pencil first and then moved it to an online environment. It is designed to compliment the use of the study guide which can be used in a more tutorial mode.\u00a0 \u00a0The key is that you need to approach the practice exam as if it were an actual exam &#8211; not trying to look up answers you don&#8217;t know right away, but rather practice answering the questions just like you would during the test itself.\u00a0 In addition, you need to try to make your best judgement on how hard you think each item is.\u00a0 Students who use the practice exam in this way reported it as quite helpful during our development of this new tool.<\/p>\n<h6>Practice exam report<\/h6>\n<p>Once you take your practice exam, you will receive a report providing you with a score in each category corresponding to the topic areas in the study guide.\u00a0 In addition to this, you will also receive an average score of your mental effort corresponding to the same topic areas.\u00a0 Together these can provide you a more comprehensive picture of your understanding and how you may want to target your further studies to prepare for your ACS exam.\u00a0 With a final exam looming, many students find this extra information helps them organize where to invest their study time.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>To order a tutorial or practice exam, click here.\u00a0 Bundles of our practice exams with our study guides is also available and offers a savings when purchased together.
