Access SimNet Exam



  • The Access SimNet Exam will allow up to five attempts at each question through SimNet. Be sure to complete the SimNet Access "Lesson" for an overview of the skills you will need to know before you take the Access SimNet Exam. See the Access SimNet Lesson and below for details of content. 
    • The Access SimNet Lesson has 44 skills compared to the Access SimNet Exam with 50 skills. There is additional information you may benefit from reviewing in these following skills under the SimNet Teach Me or Show Me portions on the following topics. SimNet Technical Support says that some of the skills on our Exam are covered by the Lesson, but that there are multiple topics related that only appear in the Teach Me or Show Me portions (not the Let Me Try section). Sorry for any frustration! Please review the Teach Me/Show Me sections of SimNet Lessons for these topics, as well as completing all the Let Me Try questions for all 44 skills.
1.    Adding A Total Row 
2.    Adding Calculated Controls to a Report from Design View 
3.    Adding Fields to Tables in Design View
4.    Applying Conditional formatting to Controls in a Report 
5.    Changing Data Types 
6.    Formatting Controls in a Report 
7.    Modifying Field Properties 
8.    Modifying Relationships 
9.    Navigating Records in a Form

Access Case Exam



  • The Access Case Exam will be given live in Access and hand graded with a rubric. The best way to prepare will be to review Access Tutorials 3 and 5, as most of the questions on the Access Case Exam will be queries. You will also need to know how to use a Validation rule, and how to create (and edit) a Form in Design view (including a Title, Logo, and Label field).
Remember to review the Queries You Need to Know document attached!
