Practice Exam

I got a questions which maybe some of you using the same style what's the rate of your passing score in practice exam before your comfortably say that youre ready to take the test? And how effective is this with all the test that you took already.

I'm thinking of taking 70-270 next week using transcender and I'm hitting 77% ave on practice test other materials im using also CBT Nuggets and Test Out.

    You should strive for 90% or better. I think you can get there in a week. Keep going through it and research/review all the questions that you are having trouble with. Also be sure to know why each option is or isn't correct. That will help you gain a much deeper understanding of the material, as opposed to just memorizing answers.

    As Dynamik has said I find the test of when to know if your ready or not is when you can explain why the other answers are WRONG rather than just why the other answer is correct.

    I tend to look at the pointless answers and count them out then think to myself, "So what will Answer B achieve if i do it? Is this what they are asking for?". Do this for each answer your not sure of and you cant go far wrong aslong as you know the why not, not just the why.

    Also I would be looking for atleast 85% on the Trancenders then you should find on the real one.

    Good luck!

    Thanks for the feedback yeah Ive been trying to analyze the answer and of course not memorizing it cause it will not help the only thing I notice when taking a practice test is you really need to have time to read carefully and more patience because what I'm also doing is trying to eliminate whats not and read back the questions to point out to the correct answer

    Dito Dynamik and Sie...

    They (researchers perhaps?) say you typically do 5-10% worse on the actual exam compared to practice exams. I always like to score 90 percent on practice exams before jumping...You should feel confident scoring 20% better than what's needed to pass. Gives you a nice cushion.



    You can try preplogic or transcender for practice exams. Although they cost money, they are very good if your serious about wanting to pass. I don't know about transcender, but preplogic typically always has some kind of "sale" going on.

    You should also go through the technotes on this site.

    CBT Nuggets will help you on the part of the way they explain how things are being done while I watch the video I also take some important notes and compile them all together including the notes on this site which is very helpfull. But most important is you should be able to do a lot of practice test and understanding those questions and answers.
