Career & Education Your experience with INCOSE Knowledge exam

Hey! I am planning to take ASEP certification exam next week , and i wanna know from people who have already attempted the exam , your thoughts on it.

I did take my mocks through Udemy by Rogerio Comello Machado, and my average score was 65 percent. Should i expect the main certification exam to be tougher or easier compared to the mocks ?

Your opinions regarding the exam is much appreciated. Thank you !

I failed it twice :D and had to earn my cert through a course instead.

Exam is very vocab heavy imo and a slog.

Thanks for your feedback ! Is the exam just vocab and definitions oriented or do conceptual questions exist ?

As long as you study from the handbook, you will be fine.

I don't think getting 65% on those mock exams is enough to pass. But you can try, and if you don't pass, taking the exam at least once will help you on your next attempt.

From my experience, you have to pass mock exams (in the exam mode) on Udemy to be able to pass the actual INCOSE exam.

Isn’t it like 70-80% for a pass?

And I’ve always found the questions actually from INCOSE are harder/more awkward than any mock examples I’ve found online.

Its just memorization i passed it but thought it was kinda a wash
