Study Guides for Exams
Q: Does AskProctor provide study guides for exams
A: No. AskProctor is a proctoring solutions provider and does not create or distribute study guides. Our role is to ensure the integrity, security, and fairness of exams through reliable remote and in person proctoring services. Study materials are the responsibility of the testing organization, educational institution, or candidate.
Q: Where can I find official study guides for my exam
A: Always begin with the official source. Most certifying bodies and institutions publish content outlines, candidate handbooks, or recommended study resources. Examples include:
- The National Council of State Boards of Nursing for the NCLEX
- The California Department of Real Estate for real estate licensing
- Pearson VUE or PSI for exam-specific content breakdowns
These documents define exactly what will be tested and are the most reliable foundation for preparation.
Q: What makes an effective study guide
A: A high quality study guide should:
- Align with the official exam content outline
- Include realistic practice questions with detailed explanations
- Cover all tested domains in appropriate proportion
- Provide strategies for time management and question analysis
- Be up to date with current exam formats, including Next Generation NCLEX or state specific law changes
Q: Can I use my study guide during a proctored exam
A: No. Proctored exams whether in person or online are typically closed book. All personal materials, including notes, textbooks, and digital files, are prohibited unless explicitly permitted by the exam administrator. Attempting to access unauthorized resources during a proctored session may result in disqualification.
Q: How can I prepare effectively for a proctored exam
A:
- Use official or reputable third party study guides well before exam day
- Simulate test conditions with timed practice exams
- Test your technology and environment in advance if taking an online proctored exam
- Focus on understanding concepts, not memorizing answers
- Review proctoring rules to avoid accidental policy violations
