Most realistic Practice Exams

| I've heard that the Transcender exams are the closest in difficulty level to
the real exams.
Does anyone have any experience of them.
Cheers Richard

| I used them for all 4 of my exams, and in all cases, the Transcender was
harder than the real thing. By the time I could pass the Transcender on the
first attempt (usually on the last of the 3 practice exams), I got 90-95% on
the real thing in well under 1/2 the time allowed.
Saying that, they are not cheap, and different people study in different
ways!
Each to their own.....

| They are not the closest in difficulty because for some inexplicable reason
the passing mark for the Transcender exams are much higher than that
required by Microsoft.

| That's how they can afford to offer their "Money back if you don't Pass"
guarantee!! As long as their questions are of comparable quality, and the
pass mark is ~20% higher, they're onto a bit of a winner.

| Hi there Patrick! Thanks for the e-mail. We should meet up soon but I am
busy like I do not know what! I've got a job interview on Monday or Tuesday
with a company in Covent Garden.

| I use BeachfrontQuizzer and Transcender.
Both are more difficult than the MSFT tests, imo.
I like the depth of Beachfrontquizzer.
I like the realism of Transcender.
