What score out of 90 must you get on the exam to get a study score of 50 in ITA?
Seeing that it's not a very competitive subject.
-
No more than just a few, presumably. My teacher told me with 1st/2nd in SACs we could lose four, if I remember correctly.
-
thanks mate.
i am first in sacs so its doable.
-
In that case, just slog through as many trial exams as you can. There's a download link around here with a good 30 of them I think.
-
Ok i downloaded them.
cheers mate.
-
I've done 9 exams and am going to do another three today wbu?
-
Wow, I haven't even done one yet, been trying to finish off checkpoints instead. What sort of scores are you achieving?
-
My scores fluctuate drastically on the brand of exams I use. Some are hard and some are easy. To add to that fluctuation, I'm obviously getting better as I go along.
-
Oh, so which companies are the easy and hard ones?
-
QAT and VITTA tend to be easier. Insight will break your balls. It doesn't matter which one you choose - they'll all expose some holes in your knowledge of the course you can then fill in.
-
Oh, looks like I'll be doin insight after all the vitta ones.
-
Don't worry about the scores you get. Just audit each paper you do and find an explanation as to why you lost every mark. Do not give yourself marks for incorrectly answering a question because you didn't read it.
-
lol yeah, that's what I'm aiming to do, be as strict as possible.
-
I have just been going through the checkpoints book over and over and have really developed a good knowledge base and now will start on full practice exams.
Some exam questions are just really left field sometimes and the wording doesn't make much sense. Hopefully with practice i will get really familiar with the wording of the exam questions.
Ben how many practice exams would you recommend i do before the actual exam?

Yep, checkpoints been great for me also, though I'm not finished, I've learnt so much from it so far. I've only got the organisations and information systems chapter left.
Yep some questions wording suck so bad that I don't even know what they're actually asking for.
Well if you have the time, obviously do all the exams you have available. But definitely aim for at least 10.
-
I'm still doing ITA so I'm not an expert. I've done 12 and will probably aim for 30.
-
wow man. ok thanks for the heads up.
good luck with it all.
-
Can someone please pm me the link to all the ITA prac exams. I need as many as i can get.
