Guide Review - BenchMarque Examiner Review
Since my last review, BenchMarque came out with a
new release that greatly improved upon the previous version. The
demo provided a few questions from each of it's seven tests for
the MCSE. The interface remains clean and simple with some added
features such as detailed explanations for each answer in
'Practice Mode'. The window can be minimized, but still still
sticks at 640x480 which results in some scrolling. The test
history screen keeps track of your 'Exam Mode' results and does
an excellent job of targeting weaknesses. Tests are divided into
categories so you can focus your questions by category or draw
from the full pool of questions. Test material is well-written
and provides the level of knowledge that is needed for the
exams.
BenchMarque continues to expand it's test
line-up and product features and is currently being used in 50
countries. If you are in the market for affordable practice
tests be sure to check out their website and download a demo.
You won't be disappointed. |
