Exam Edge?
#1
Good morning all,
Has anyone ever used EXAM EDGE for test preparation?  If so, how did you like it?  Thank you!

As a matter of politeness to the InstantCert site owner, what is appropriate decorum for discussing a competitor?

Although Exam Edge does offer some exam preparation tools that InstantCert offers (same exams), it is a minority of what they offer services for.   I do understand your concern, and respect that because it is a fee based service - ModernStates and Study.com would be more direct competitors and they are discussed here all the time (Modern States may be free to us as users, doesn't change the impact as competition), and Study.com offers no free services and offers prep for all the same exams.  I use these two only as examples because the rules of discussion should be equal to all providers, not just those who offer us end users free services or direct credit in addition to test prep. InstantCert offers a great paid service, and although many do use only them to prepare for the exams - I do not think they are blind to the fact that many people use more than one source to prepare for testing out.  Plus it's good business practice to use unbiased feedback (good or bad) on your competitors to improve and/or market your own business offerings.

I have never used Exam Edge, so I have no experience with there services. They have a good BBB rating, but only a single star on Yelp.  All the other information I can find from users who have stated publicly that they have used them all indicated they used additional sources as well to pass the certifications they were working towards.  Personally I find their website very outdated, which makes me question their content running the risk of being outdated as well, but that is solely an opinion based on the professional appearance they have chosen.

I appreciate your response.   I am looking into passing an additional PRAXIS teacher certification test and INSTANTCERT doesn't offer studying for those exams anyway, correct?

Correct, they do not (at this time, maybe someday)
