The Test Innovators Video Course provides videos and resources that focus on both strategies and content to help you reach your testing goals. Consider these methods to making use of the Video Course:
Start with the videos on Test-taking Strategies. This chapter includes all of the videos that will help you on each section of the test, including time management and multiple choice strategies. Watching these videos first will give you the foundation to succeed on every section.
