Acer practice exams

[lisafaustina]

so i purchased these acer practice exams for the UMAT, and i was wondering if its level of difficulty is the same as for the actual umat test, because after doing all these medentry practice exams the acer practice exams seem so much easier.......................

from what i've seen of the medentry stuff, the ACER exams are a better indicator of what will be on the UMAT. medentry provide a lot more questions, so it's inevitable that they'll have to write broader/more complicated ones just to produce that much content.

apparently acer make the practice tests easier than the umat to give people a false sense of security.

Serious? Damn. Makes sense if it was easier, they're piss easy compared to medentry!
But the real UMAT would have to be hard, apparently around 20K students are taking it in Australia? (according to medentry dude)

In the 2008 practice UMAT, it says the "practice test is made up of previously used UMAT questions".

^ I've got that one.  Still haven't done it yet...

What about like the acer practise tests? Not the 2008 one in particular but those practice question booklets you get from the acer shop.
