ISTQB exams are challenging, but with preparation, you can succeed!

The ASTQB support team has talked with many of our testers and trainers about their advice for taking ISTQB exams. Some key points are:

Preparation is key: Give yourself enough time to prepare for your ISTQB exam before you schedule your ISTQB exam date.
Download the free syllabi and glossary: The free syllabi and glossary that are provided for the ISTQB exams are very important.
Study the sample exams – but not just the sample exams: The free ISTQB sample exams are useful but don’t rely on them completely. Just because you know those ISTQB sample exam answers doesn’t mean that you know the answers to the exact questions on the exams. Again, study the syllabus and glossary.
