Your exam day playbook - prepare calmly and manage your time. Exam outcomes depend on your knowledge and preparation.
You've picked the right exam and studied smart. Exam day is now a performance problem, not a knowledge problem. This lesson covers the last 48 hours before your test, the exact hour-of playbook, and what happens (nothing scary) if you don't pass on the first attempt.
Do not learn new material. Your job is now recall, not intake. Sleep 8 hours both nights. Do one final simulator run 36 hours out, then review only your flagged questions the day before. Prep your ID, confirmation email, and route to the test centre the night before - remove every avoidable stressor.
Divide total exam time by number of questions. That's your per-question budget - for most associate exams it's roughly 90 seconds. If a question is taking longer, flag it and move on. Come back at the end. You'll almost always answer flagged questions faster on second pass with fresh eyes.
Read the last sentence first - it's usually the actual question. Then read the answers to see what the exam is testing. Then read the scenario with those answers in mind. Eliminate obviously wrong options before choosing. On 'best answer' questions, look for the option that solves the problem with the least assumption.
Eligible first-attempt refund requests are reviewed under our Refund Policy. Exam attempts must be within 12 months of purchase; claims must be submitted within 30 days with an official score report.
