Is the CNSC Exam practice test by PTC worth it?

It’s getting close to CNSC Exam time, and you need a practice test. The testing company that administers the exam (PTC) offers an online practice test for $75. This practice test gives you a glimpse of what the exam could look like. However, the major downside of this practice test is that, just like the CNSC exam itself, you don’t get to see correct and incorrect answers.

Practice tests like this can be useful to help reduce test anxiety, but their utility is limited. Not being able to see correct and incorrect answers prevents you from knowing what the test question writers were getting at, and doesn’t give you real-world test knowledge you can apply to the actual exam.

My CNSC Exam Study Guide & Online Course includes 12 digital practice tests (over 200 questions in all), plus a 100-item paper mock exam you can get access to in my 14-week Study Group. This is a great option for a holistic, well-rounded test prep experience.
