My first question was a SATA

My first question was a SATA. I have heard different rumors about the test gets harder as you go on. I don't know what to think anymore... I am stressed and tired.

Romi, you seem to be misunderstanding how the test works. SATA questions are merely an alternative format used; having one or 90 means nothing in terms of how you are doing.

Also, it doesn't actually "get harder as you go on".....if you answer a question that is at passing standard incorrectly, it will give you an easier one. Got that wrong, too? Still an easier one. Ok, now you got that one right? It will give you a harder one. Got THAT one right? A harder one......the point is for the computer program to determine that you are above passing standard, and sufficiently so that you are deemed competent at the time the test shuts off.

It can take anywhere from the minimum number to the maximum number to determine this.
