In the Online Geotechnical Engineering Test, for every correct answer, you will be given 2 points. There will also be negative marking of -1 for every wrong answer. So, you will have to be more careful in choosing the answers to the question in your online examination. If needed, you should skip to the next question and come back to the previous question later so that you can do proper time management for the online mock tests.
Based on your score, you would be given one of the following Grades:
Grade A* - Genius (You scored 100%)
Grade A - Excellent (Your score is in the range of 80% to 99%)
Grade B - Good (Your score is in the range of 60% to 80%)
Grade C - Average (Your score is in the range of 40% to 60%)
Grade D - Poor (Your score is in the range of 0% to 40%)
There will be 5 types of Geotechnical Engineering Tests. The details of each of these tests are as follows:
For every "Geotechnical Engineering Practice Test", Total Questions: 20, Total Time: Unlimited.
For every "Geotechnical Engineering Mock Test", Total Questions: 20, Total Time: 20 Minutes.
For "Geotechnical Engineering Certification Test", Total Questions: 50, Total Time: 1 hour.
For "Geotechnical Engineering Internship Test", Total Questions: 50, Total Time: 1 hour.
For "Geotechnical Engineering Job Test", Total Questions: 50, Total Time: 1 hour.
Before you get started on these series of online tests on Geotechnical Engineering, you should learn, study and practice our collection of 1000 MCQs (Multiple Choice Questions and Answers) on Geotechnical Engineering here. We also prefer that you should practice Geotechnical Engineering practice tests and mock tests completely before attempting the certification test.
Here is the list of online practice tests and mock tests on Geotechnical Engineering. Each online test focuses on a "Specific chapter of Geotechnical Engineering". So, you should try both practice test and mock test on every chapter to do a self-assessment of your knowledge (along with time-limit constraints) in every area or sub-topic of Geotechnical Engineering. Geotechnical Engineering Certification test, Internship test, and Job Test are mentioned at the end of this list.
