TERP10 Study Guide

Some important points about the TERP10 certification test: •

• •

•

•

It has multiple choice and free response (fill in the blank type) uestions! There "ill be around #0 uestions and the $ast ma%ority "ill be multiple choice type uestions! &uestions are based on the course cou rse material only '' nothin else!  $ery ood understandin of SP from a practical $ie"point is essential! *o"e$er+ the test also reuires you to memori,e details and you "ill need to study specially for the test and make e$ery effort to remember these details! It is ironical+ but true that e$en if you ha$e a pretty solid understandin of SP and can carry out most transactions+ you can still easily fail the test unless you prepare diliently for the test by payin attention to $ery specific details! -urin the test+ you "ill ans"er each uestion on'line and "ill ha$e the opportunity to mark uestions for "hich you are unsure about the ans"er 

The four days allocated to the trainin session are inadeuate to co$er the material from start to finish! I am uite confident that you "ill already ha$e co$ered the basics durin your courses "ith -r! .ian &i+ and durin the e/tensi$e re$ie" sessions! Thus+ the trainin course bet"een une # and 11 "ill completely focus on preparin for the test! I "ill assume that your understandin of the basic modules (S-+ + PP+ 2I and 34) is already pretty solid (at the le$el co$ered in 2itter Snacker) and "ill focus on "hat is needed to et you ready for the test! In this document+ I lay out a list of thins that you should memorize in each unit! 2or our trainin session to be successful+ you should co$er all of these items e$en before "e start the trainin sessions! 5ou should find the ans"ers to each of the follo"in uestions and also memori,e these ans"ers! The uestions on the e/amination "ill not be in the form i$en belo"+ ho"e$er+ studyin in this form "ill prepare you to handle the uestions in the e/amination easily! In "hat follo"s+ the number in the parentheses after each uestion indicates the pae number from "hich the uestion is taken!
