Hey all,
Could someone plis clarify me on how the Pearson Practise Test s are structure cos the person who sold me Dr collins packet also sent a CD copy of an audio learn PCAT with a file which states Pearson Practice Test.

So this is what I printed out so far
Bio. Practice test 1 & 2 each with 48 questions. then a copy of questions and answers too

QA also has 2 practice tests, 48 questions and answers each

CHEM same thing

VA same thing

I got this in July 2012 and was wondering for those who have taken the Practice tests if this is what you got or were there 3 practice tests per section?

Also does Pearson change the test questions for pracice regularly every month or it's just a fixed set of practice tests for revison?
Will appreciate any feedback so I know if I need to purchase it or use that in my possession!!

Thanks and goodluck to y'all!

I purchased all three practice tests from Pearson and all three had different sets of questions for each subject.
And according to what I read on other post everyone buys the same tests. I'm not sure how often Pearson revises questions though.

The questions are fixed. I accidentally took test 3 first. I heard that it's recommended to go in numerical order because it's in order of difficulty. I decided to just rebuy the test 3 so I could take it after studying more and get my score rescored. It's the exact same questions as when I purchased it the first time.

Thanks for the feedback.

So it's not possible to save the questions to retake them later? Just one trial, that's it?

For Pearson they do change/update the practice test every year. The Pearson is only useful on where they gauge your scores statistically after you have taken a practice test (Very accurate might I add). The questions are only as good as Dr.Collins but with Dr Collins you get 6-10X more practice tests to go through. If you need a bunch of practice and conditioning use Collins which also includes study guides. If you need to know where your score likely stands then Pearson is the way. Have fun studying!

After you have submitted your practice test you "Cannot" retake that test again. After submitting your practice test(s) you will be given an evaluation on each subsection topic for that subject. It will place how many you missed, raw % score, and composite for that subject. You are still able to look through it though. Basically you still have access to it even after submitting the test.
