Sample Quiz

Use the following rules for each exam:

  1. Be sure that you click on Save answer after every question. Nothing is worse than crashing on question 39 of a 40 question exam without saving. The yellow dot represents a question that is unanswered and the blue check represents a question that is answered and saved.
  2. Read the instructions on the page that comes up when you click on the exam/quiz before you click to begin.
  3. Do not forget to Submit!

Be sure to watch the timer in the upper right-hand corner of your exam. You must complete the exam before the timer expires.

NOTE: If your web browser or computer crashes during an exam, contact the instructor immediately by email!
