Install Options
Users may choose to  install the exams to their hard drive or run them from the CD. The "Next " button will bring you to the installation page. The MCSE Core Exams TEST YOURSELF Personal Testing Center is an Internet Explorer 4.x application using Active X Controls, Javascripts and Cookies. Exit and run SETUP.EXE from the IE40 folder on this CD if IE4 is not currently installed on your system.

Screen Settings
For optimal performance, we recommend  that  (1) your screen display be set to 800 x 600; (2) your Internet Explorer 4 font settings be set to medium and (3) you work in "Full Screen" view. While running this application, use the navigation bars at the bottom of the screen to move back and forth. Don't use the IE4 navigation buttons to move within the exam.

Live, Practice and Review Exams
To assess your current knowledge, we recommend that you  take a Live Exam first with all topics selected. When you complete the Live Exam, ASSESS YOURSELF  will clearly indicate which topics require further study. Live Exams consist of approximately 55 questions randomly selected from the total pool of over 500 questions. Practice Exams consist of all questions within a topic, so we recommend you select only a few topics at a time for practice. The REVIEW EXAM should only be used after completing either a Live exam. It displays all of the questions you answered incorrectly.

Scoring
By ending Practice or Live exams, the Personal Testing Center will automatically generate an ASSESS YOURSELF  score for each topic you've selected. Live exams will also generate generate a BENCHMARK YOURSELF history of your prior scores. Note: Score histories are saved as IE4 Cookies named "History". You must have cookies enabled in your browser for the scores to be saved and retrieved.
