Pilot Examinee Feedback – Illustrative Comments

"It was really awesome. I'm in an HR Master's program and [the exam] connected with all the things I'm learning for my degree." "I loved the SJTs. In fact, the day after I studied the practice materials, someone at work had one of the exact situations…“ "The exam is really like life and work experience. I have had work situations with those same issues mentioned in the test questions.” “I felt my experience helped me answer all the SJT questions because I had experienced many of the situations on-the-job.” "The difficulty was about the same as the legacy exam, but the content was much more related to the job I have now." 13
