I have just recently taken the MOS Word Exam and passed! It was a 50 minute exam with 8 different projects, each containing about 5 tasks each. The practice exams really helped me breeze through the real exam. There were some things in the practice exam that Cengage did not teach which allowed me to spend more time on the tasks that I had trouble on. Even though I took my time to read each task, and took about 3-4 minutes to do a few tasks, I still had 10 minutes to spare. One of the tasks that I struggled with was rearranging the numbers on a SmartArt from left to right (it was originally right to left) while keeping the arrangement of the boxes and text. I was unsure if there was an option to do that, but I had just ended up manually deleting and retyping the numbers instead. I don't remember what the exact task was, but I still have the concept in my head.
Congrats on being the first student from IS101-2003, Spring 2021 to pass the Microsoft Office Specialist (MOS) Word Associate-level certification exam (MO-100) ^_^
ReplyDeleteVery glad to hear the GMetrix practice exams helped!
More MOS certificates are available down the road :-)
Congrats! I personally felt very excited to pass as well because I didn't know if I would LOL. I struggled with two little tasks as well, and like you they are engraved into my head because I couldn't figure them out.
ReplyDeleteI had the same issue with rearranging the numbers. I don't remember doing this on our practice exams.Congratulations on your passing.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your accomplishment! I also agree that the practice prepared for the real exam. I find it really cool that you were able to learn something from the practice.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on passing the exam. The practice exam was a great help on how to navigate the exam. I feel like I spent a good 5 minutes constantly moving my three cats during the exam.
ReplyDeleteYea, those practice exams helped a lot. I did notice those questions that were never covered in the lessons and projects were trouble for me on the exam.
ReplyDeleteGlad you passed the exam, I agree the practice really does help.
