Practice Tests enable instructors to create comprehensive, long form simulated exams that students can use to assess their
knowledge of a particular subject. Similar to Quizzes, Practice Tests are composed of multiple choice or multiple selection
questions, but unlike Quizzes, Practice Tests can provide a longer, more robust assessment tool.
They are particularly useful for subjects when students are preparing for a final exam. Examples of these types of exams
include the SAT, GMAT, ACT, or the various certification exams used in various professional industries like IT, Architecture,
Finance, and Business.
Please note that due to the unique and proprietary nature of many practice tests, they can only be added to paid courses.
Instructors can create up to 550 curriculum items for a course (sections, lectures, quizzes, coding exercises, practice tests
and assignments).
In addition, instructors can create a new course, composed only of Practice Tests.

Previewing the Test
Once you’ve added questions to the Practice Test, you can see how the exam will appear to students, by clicking on Preview
Once the practice test is created and the questions have been added, you can make it live in the course by clicking on
Publish Practice Test.
If you need to unpublish a practice test, you can do so by navigating to the course curriculum, and clicking the unpublish icon
on the right hand side.
Please note: once a practice test has been published for a course it cannot be deleted. This is to ensure that students will
always be able to access their practice test results. You can, however, unpublish the practice test, which will prevent new
students who enroll in your course from taking it.
