Yes, I took the astronomy test. I pushed the magic "report score" button and poof..up came a 47 when a 48 is needed to pass. I enjoyed studying for the test and the material associated with it. But, questions such as
1. What was the type of the first telescope ever used?
2. How far is the sun from the nearest galaxy?
3. Who is considered the father of astronomy?
4. What planet does not have rings around it...your given
4 choices... be sure to choose Mercury!!!
5. What planet has such and such moon in its orbit?
I knew the answers and I SUCCESSFULLY SECOND GUESSED MYSELF INTO..answering these questions wrong!! Otherwise I would have passed; no
problem. This test is not that hard. I lacked for study tools, but then at the end I found some good reference materials online and in the bookstore. This is a very doable test!!. It is a test that should be on the Instantcert program study program!!! I wish I could take again asap, but 6 months... no thanks, I plan ON graduating before then!!
Steve ..if you're reading this...I really believe having this included in the flashcard study materials would be a tremendous help for the non-science people such as myself!
Happy New year.. YA' ALL!!
