PSYC10004 MBB2 Practice Exam

Quiz Instructions
Dear MBB2 student,
this practice exam is intended to give you an opportunity to rehearse for the final MBB2 exam. There
are 25 questions in this practice exam.
You will notice that I have implemented a time limit of 40 minutes for the exam. This approximates
the time pressure you will experience in the real exam, where you will be required to complete 120
questions in 3 hours (plus 15 minutes reading time) - i.e. approximately 1 question every 1.5
minutes. This will also give you the opportunity to test and see that your quiz timer will continue to
progress through to completion once you commence the exam.
You can take it as many times as you like.
The questions in this exam are intended to give you a good sense of the types of questions that we
will ask in the real exam. The level of difficulty is also representative of the real exam. Also like the
real exam, I will not be releasing the answers to these practice questions. You are, however,
welcome to discuss these amongst yourselves.
I'll look forward to seeing how you feel after take the exam when we next meet, which will be this
coming Monday by livestream.
All the best,
Chris.
