Boson's Practice Exams

What's the difference?

Both ExSim-Max and ExSim practice exams will prepare you for your IT certification exams. ExSim-Max is designed to simulate the real exam by providing the complete exam environment. ExSim practice exams provide value content for you to review before taking your certification exam.

Know you can pass.

ExSim-Max practice exams are the best practice exams available in the industry, if we may say so ourselves. ExSim-Max is designed to simulate the complete exam experience, including topics covered, question types, question difficulty and time allowed, so you know what to expect.

ExSim-Max is developed by Boson's team of subject-matter experts and put through a strenuous technical- and language-editing process. Boson's team consists of highly trained authors, including those who originally helped launch the IT certification practice exam industry in the early 1990s. We don't mean to brag, but there isn't a better team out there with more experience or know-how when it comes to creating top-quality practice exams.

That alone is enough to invest in ExSim-Max, but it gets better. With ExSim-Max's accurate and detailed explanations, you don't just learn the answer, you actually learn the technologies covered. And we've replicated the timing and difficulty of the actual exam so accurately that if you can pass the ExSim-Max exam, you can pass the real exam, guaranteed.

Here's how we think you should use ExSim-Max.

• First, get an ExSim-Max product. (In case you didn't know, ExSim-Max products include multiple practice exams.)
• Take an exam, and don't peek at the answers.
• View your score report to see what areas you need to improve upon.
• Review the questions and detailed answers provided in order to learn the material; don't just memorize the answers.
• Use the references provided, and study the topics that you need to learn.
• When you think you are ready, take the next exam.
• If you didn't pass, repeat the previous steps.
• If you did pass, just for fun, go ahead and take the next practice exam to increase your knowledge of the required material.
• When you can pass the ExSim-Max practice exam, you will know you are ready for the real exam.
• Go take the IT certification exam with confidence.

Third-Party Practice Questions/Back of book CDs

If you see a Boson logo on a Cisco Press or McGraw Hill book you will find a CD in the back of the book that includes practice questions written by the Cisco Press or McGraw Hill author.

There has been confusion over the years so let us try to clarify what you get on the back of book CDs. The content on the CD is entirely written and edited by the Cisco Press or the McGraw Hill author and is delivered by Boson Exam Environment (BEE). Boson does not write or edit any of the material on the CD.
