My professor mentioned exam answers that are six pages long (for a one hour hypo) generally tend to cover more issues than other exams and, therefore, score better. I know typing really fast and writing six pages doesn't guarantee a good grade, but I am curious:
How many words/characters are there per one SoftTest page?
I assume it is close to a Word document, but then again it might be quite different. I want to find out so during my exam practice I can see how close I am to writing six pages per hour in SoftTest. I can't find a way to print from SoftTest, otherwise this would be easy to figure out. (I am quite sure it is prohibited during practice, and obviously during the real exam).

Re: ExamSoft/SoftTest: Words/Characters per page?
Does this really matter? In the past, my Exam Soft did not keep a page count but kept a word count. There should be a dummy exam you can run.Nestico87 wrote:My professor mentioned exam answers that are six pages long (for a one hour hypo) generally tend to cover more issues than other exams and, therefore, score better.

It doesn't matter. Just start typing and keep going until time runs out.
