Objective tests cover more ground than essay tests and usually have many more questions.
Preparing for an objective test Because of their nature and design, objective tests have a wider range than essay tests and cover the material in quite a different way. An essay test will go deeper into three of four main concepts. An objective test will cover most of the concepts developed in the course, but no single question will go deep into one particular concept. Preparation for an objective test might appear to differ somewhat from an essay test, however the basic principles are the same. Find out what the exam will cover.
