When you are ready to take an exam you request it from BYU online. They will ask what testing site you want to go to for the exam. The site is usually at a college or testing center. BYU sends the testing center a code that will allow access to the exam. The exams are closed book...the first one is over 8 chapters! You can retake a speedback assignment or an exam for an additional fee. you can email me or send me a pm if you'd like.

have either one of you taken the first exam yet? I just found this class, and I am enrolled with EC too. I have completed all the nursing concepts, waiting in CPNE. But have micro and a&p yet to do. Just curious if the test questions are close to the assignment questions. I have not signed up yet for this class, but strongly considering it. thanks!

I have taken the first exam and am taking the 2nd exam at the end of this week. Some of the questions on the test are similar to the speedback assignment questions but they are not all the same. There are 7 or 8 questions from each chapter on the exam. That is the hard part....so much information to remember for 1 test!

Ok, well thats good to know. I have seen that you are able to re-take exams for and extra fee, do you know if this applies to the micro class. I am paranoid I guess....sighhhh.. Might sign up next week. Are you in the EC program? I have not sent a request for approval yet, just trying to gather info first. Thanks

No, I am not in the EC program. I am doing a program at UT here in Texas that approves this course. Good Luck!

Hi,

Class is going well. I am taking 2 other courses this fall so I havent worked on Micro since September. I still have the last exam to take and a few of the speedback assignments to finish.

How is it going for you?

Beth
