but-When taking a practice exam, the Item Review screen isnot available until you have answered all the questions

This is consistent with the behavior of most vendors’

current certification exams In Study Mode, ItemReview is available at any time

Starting an ExamFrom the ExamGear, Training Guide Edition mainmenu screen, select the type of exam you want to run

Click the Practice Exam or Adaptive Exam button tobegin the corresponding exam type

What Is an Adaptive Exam?

To make the certification testing process more efficientand valid and therefore make the certification itselfmore valuable, some vendors in the industry are using a

testing technique called adaptive testing In an adaptive

exam, the exam “adapts” to your abilities by varying thedifficulty level of the questions presented to you

The first question in an adaptive exam is typically aneasy one If you answer it correctly, you are presentedwith a slightly more difficult question If you answerthat question correctly, the next question you see iseven more difficult If you answer the question incor-rectly, however, the exam “adapts” to your skill level bypresenting you with another question of equal or lesser

difficulty on the same subject If you answer that tion correctly, the test begins to increase the difficultylevel again You must correctly answer several questions

ques-at a predetermined difficulty level to pass the exam.After you have done this successfully, the exam is endedand scored If you do not reach the required level ofdifficulty within a predetermined time (typically 30minutes) the exam is ended and scored

Why Do Vendors Use Adaptive Exams?

Many vendors who offer technical certifications haveadopted the adaptive testing technique They havefound that it is an effective way to measure a candi-date’s mastery of the test material in as little time asnecessary This reduces the scheduling demands on thetest taker and allows the testing center to offer moretests per test station than they could with longer, moretraditional exams In addition, test security is greater,and this increases the validity of the exam process

Studying for Adaptive ExamsStudying for adaptive exams is no different from study-ing for traditional exams You should make sure thatyou have thoroughly covered all the material for each ofthe test objectives specified by the certification examvendor As with any other exam, when you take anadaptive exam, either you know the material or youdon’t If you are well prepared, you will be able to passthe exam ExamGear, Training Guide Edition allowsyou to familiarize yourself with the adaptive exam test-ing technique This will help eliminate any anxiety youmight experience from this testing technique and allowyou to focus on learning the actual exam material

Trang 4

If your overall score is between 67% and 85%, it is

considered to be inconclusive Additional questions will

be asked until you pass or fail or until it becomes tically impossible to pass without asking more than themaximum number of questions allowed

statis-Question Types and How to Answer Them

Because certification exams from different vendors vary,you will face many types of questions on any givenexam ExamGear, Training Guide Edition presents youwith different question types to allow you to becomefamiliar with the various ways an actual exam may testyour knowledge The Solution Architectures exam, inparticular, offers a unique exam format and utilizesquestion types other than multiple choice This version

of ExamGear includes cases—extensive problemdescriptions running several pages in length, followed

by a number of questions specific to that case

Microsoft refers to these case/question collections as

testlets This version of ExamGear, Training Guide

Edition also includes regular questions that are notattached to a case study We include these questiontypes to make taking the actual exam easier because youwill already be familiar with the steps required toanswer each question type This section describes each

of the question types presented by ExamGear and vides instructions for answering each type

pro-ExamGear’s Adaptive ExamThe method used to score the Adaptive Exam requires

a large pool of questions For this reason, you cannotuse this exam in Preview mode The Adaptive Exam ispresented in much the same way as the Practice Exam

When you click the Start Test button, you beginanswering questions The Adaptive Exam does notallow item review, and it does not allow you to markquestions to skip and answer later You must answereach question when it is presented

Multiple ChoiceMost of the questions you see on a certification examare multiple choice (see Figure G.4) This question typeasks you to select an answer from the list provided.

Sometimes you must select only one answer, often cated by answers preceded by option buttons (roundselection buttons) At other times, multiple correctanswers are possible, indicated by check boxes preced-ing the possible answer combinations

format, only one answer is correct ExamGear, TrainingGuide Edition prompts you with the number ofanswers you must select

Drag and Drop

One form of drag and drop question is called a Drop

and Connect question These questions present you

with a number of objects and connectors The questionprompts you to create relationships between the objects

by using the connectors The gray squares on the leftside of the question window are the objects you canselect The connectors are listed on the right side of thequestion window in the Connectors box An example isshown in Figure G.5

Ordered-List Questions

In the ordered-list question type (see Figure G.7), you

are presented with a number of items and are asked toperform two tasks:

1 Build an answer list from items on the list ofchoices

2 Put the items in a particular order

To remove an item from the answer list, you can useany one of the following four methods:

Like the ordered-list question, realize that any item inthe list can be selected twice If you need to select a listitem more than once, you can simply select that itemfor the appropriate node as you construct your tree.Also realize that not every tree question actuallyrequires order to the lists under each node Think ofthem as simply tree questions rather than ordered-treequestions Such questions are just asking you to catego-rize hierarchically Order is not an issue.

You can use either of the following two methods to add

an item to the tree:

á Drag the item from the list of choices on theright side of the screen to the appropriate node ofthe tree on the left side of the screen

you with a number of items and prompts you to create

a tree structure from those items The tree structureincludes two or three levels of nodes

F I G U R E G 8

A typical ordered-tree question.
