Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

We built this program to teach the material from the ground up, so individuals without any background and education can be successful on these regulatory exams. We have also created on-demand lectures. Just like a live class, a person walks you through the material and gives extra examples to help with challenging concepts.    

How do I approach the material?  

• Listen to the lectures just like you're attending a live class. Set aside dedicated study time, and make sure to have your book, a pen, and notepad handy.    
• Go through the lectures in order when you go through the content for the first time, as laid out on the study page. Certain concepts will build upon each other as you progress through the material.  
• Repeat any parts of the lecture that you find challenging or where you may have “zoned-out.”   
• Take Notes! Make sure to put the material in your own words to help increase retention.     
• Create Flashcards (Or use the ones provided in your course).       
• Review the content and make sure you are feeling comfortable with the material. Remember, the key to passing licensing exams is to know and understand the material in the book. 

How do I approach the Practice Question Set? 

• Complete the chapter lecture. 
• Re-read the book and any notes.
• Clarify any questions you might have about the material.
• Review your notes and flashcards.  
• Take the Chapter Exam in a distraction-free area. 
• Attain green light scores on the Chapter Tests before moving on. Much of the content builds upon itself, so moving forward without remediating low scores will compound the problem. 
• It is okay not to get the Green Light on your first attempt, but make sure you are going back to the lecture and book to increase your product knowledge before you re-take the exam. Again, make sure to achieve the Green Light before moving to the next chapter.   

How many times can I take a Chapter Exam?   

• Generally, we expect students will receive a Green Light on the first or second attempt on the Chapter Exams.
• If a student takes a chapter exam 5+ times, there might be an issue with the study approach. There are likely some ways we suggest a change in study habits.
• Instead of spending so much time on the exams, we recommend modifying study approach by devoting more time to the material.
• ExamFX is happy to give suggestions on different ways to approach the material to make sure you are going into each Chapter Exam like it is the actual exam.
• You can take a Chapter Exam “unlimited” times, but we recommend spending  more time focusing on the material than on taking and re-taking exams.
• DO NOT TEST REPEATEDLY - Remember that the actual test bank is large, and regulators continually add new questions to it without notifying anyone. It is critical to learn and understand the information, so you can apply this information to any questions on the exam.
