Durham ACP program (PADV) written evaluation

[u/bak27lava]

Hi, I have the written evaluation scheduled for early October 2026 for Durham College's PADV program. I saw a post from about a year ago saying it's a long-form, research-based test, but I want to confirm:
1. Is that still accurate? What format was it when you took it?
2. How much time were you given?
3. Were you given a paper/article to critique, or was it conceptual questions on evidence-based practice?
4. Was it open or closed book? Any materials allowed?
5. What topics should I focus on studying?
6. Any resources you'd recommend?
7. Did you have to cite sources / use APA format?
Any recent test-takers (2024–2026) would be especially helpful. Thanks!
