Additional Practice Tests or Practice Questions

[cochilton]

Hey Everyone,

I just took my first attempt at the test and came up a little short.  From all of my prep for the certification exam, I have found that the most beneficial material to me was actually taking the exam and working through the questions.  Does anyone know a good location on where I could get more practice tests or practice questions for the Core Certification Exam?  To clarify, I have watched all the videos that the Core Exam would cover and answered the three questions after each of those videos and I have also taken the 15ish question practice exam provided in the Prep Guide.

As of right now, I am potentially finding some other practice tests on Udemy or mainly third party sites, but anything I could get direct from Alteryx is going to be way more trustworthy than anything I could get else where.

Hey @cochilton ,

Alteryx only have those practice questions from the prep guide, other than that, we don't have anything specifically for the certification.

I would suggest you start doing the weekly challenges to start gaining practice and speed so you have enough time to review the workflow and all the other questions.

Best,

@cochilton I second the weekly challenges. They are the best way to get exposure to tools/concepts you may not see in your day to day work.

I second @cochilton's experience and request for more bite-sized practice questions to build on my Alteryx familiarity. I, too, learned best through the test questions and would love if there were a large library of test-simulated questions to continue practicing and building upon my Alteryx platform skills. I'm aware of the Weekly Challenges, but found those too involved and too difficult for someone just starting out. I'd rather have a large practice set of test-like questions that requires me to download a data set and then perform a small set of actions on that data set in Alteryx to continue learning and building on my current knowledge, iteratively.
