How will I know which courses offer these exams?
To learn how to locate and complete practice tests, please visit the applicable Help Center article below:
Is there an additional charge to take the practice test?
No. If a course offers a practice test it will be included in the course purchase. You will not need to pay any additional fee to take the practice test.
Will I be notified if I take longer than the time allotted to complete the exam?
Yes. The practice tests include a timer, which is set to match the same amount of time that’s allowed for the official, certifying exam. If you go past the time allotted, the practice test will alert you.
How can I review my answers?
You can review all the answers you submitted by clicking on Review questions after you’ve completed an exam, and see which questions you got right or wrong. You can also search through them for specific subjects in the exam using the Knowledge Areas filter. By clicking on the All Questions filter you’ll be able to select the questions you would like to review (correct, incorrect, skipped, marked for review.)
Will instructors be able to see my practice test answers and score?
No. Only the learner can view their answers and final score.
What is the difference between a practice test and a practice test course?
While a practice test is a feature available in select Udemy courses, practice test courses only include practice tests. These courses do not include other curriculum items like lectures and quizzes.
What is the difference between practice mode and exam mode?
Practice mode is an untimed, flexible way for you to practice. You can select which domain(s) you’d like to focus on, find out if you got a question right or wrong right away, and learn from the detailed answer feedback.
Exam mode is a timed experience designed to mimic the real test-taking experience.
How do I create a practice test or practice test course?

Do practice test-only courses offer Certificates of Completion?
No. Currently, courses that only include practice tests, and no other curriculum items like lectures or quizzes do not offer a Certificate of Completion.
