June 2005
We

allows users to take practice tests for important entrance exams
such as the:
-
Graduate Record Examination (GRE)
-
Medical College Admission Test (MCAT)
-
Law School Admission Test (LSAT)
-
Graduate Management Admissions Test (GMAT)

Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery Test (ASVAB)
-
Florida Police Officer Examination
-
History and civics reviews for the U.S. Citizenship Examination
Users can also improve their mathematics, reading, and writing skills by taking practice test in algebra, geometry, reading comprehension, vocabulary, and grammar.
Each test provides users with an instant score report and analysis that identifies strengths and weaknesses. LearningExpress also provides detailed explanations of right and wrong answers.
Other highlights include:
-
There is no limit to the number of tests a student can take, nor is there a limit to the number of times a test can be taken.
-
LearningExpress models their practice tests after the actual exams that are provided by organizations, such as the ETS (Education Testing Service), which administers the GRE and GMAT.
-
There are no fees for using the service, since this resource is provided by the FAU Libraries.
Each month, FAU Libraries will highlight a selected database from our collection of online resources. Don’t forget that you must first login through EZ Proxy if you wish to access a database from off-campus.
