Wow! TERC sounds great, but I have more questions, such as…
How exactly do I create a TERC account?
Choose the resource you would like to use and click "start." Create your TERC account by making up a username and password. You sign in with your TERC username and password each time you use the database. This is not created for you automatically and can be anything you can remember.
What kind of ebooks are available?
The ebooks include test preparation and career guide books. All ebooks are organized by topic in the Student Type Menu, or you can search for a particular ebook by title, subject or keyword using the search bar. The book will be available to you in PDF format.
What type of practice tests are available?
Accountant, basic skills, firefighter, NCLEX and TEAS, TOEFL, and more--there's to browse different resources available (from October 2019).
How long are the practice tests?
Each test varies in length and time. Clicking on the name of the test will provide a description of the test, test topics, and the number of questions and estimated time.
How many tests can I take?
You can take any number of tests, any type of tests—it’s up to you, and it’s all free!
Can I retake a specific practice test?
No. Practicing taking the test several times helps prepare you for the actual exam, so take advantage of multiple practice tests in TERC and in library study guides.
What if I don't have time to finish a test?
Click on "Save". You may resume when you log in again.
How do I get my results?
At the end of the test, click "Score".
