ASA Instrument Rating Prepware Overview:

ASA Prepware, the FAA Knowledge Exam software that has been completely rewritten to take advantage of advances in technology as well as incorporate feedback from customers over the years. As with all previous versions, users can take true-to-form practice exams and get immediate feedback on whatever test areas need more work. Tailor-made practice sessions improve performance in the areas you need to concentrate on the most to pass your test with flying colors!

Questions are supported by study guides and comprehensive explanations for correct and incorrect answers. Instructors can create pop quizzes of any length, on any subject matter, to supplement the study sessions. Each Prepware title includes all aircraft categories (airplane, rotorcraft, glider, lighter-than-air, powered parachute, weight-shift control). You tell the software which test you're preparing for, and the study sessions and practice tests are generated accordingly.

Features Include:

• Includes 24-month subscription to Prepware online, anywhere you have an internet connection.
• Now compatible with both PC and Macintosh systems.
• CX-3 electronic flight computer is built into the program, accessed by a click of a button during study sessions or simulated tests.
• Make and save user notes while studying in a Notes field, for annotations and comments as you work.
• "Google"-like search capabilities…search for a word or phrase in the entire database of questions, answers, and explanations.
• Build a follow-up quiz from your airman test report. The FAA doesn't tell you which questions were wrong on your test—they only give you the subject matter knowledge codes. You can plug the codes into the program to create a custom post-test follow-up, which is required prior to taking your checkride.
• Simulates the CATS testing center in screen layout, buttons, program navigation; replicates what you'll see when you take your official FAA exam.
• You can choose to print results, or e-mail them to your ground or flight instructor to obtain endorsement to take the FAA test.
• Built-in study guides are there at a click of a button for study sessions, with the same comprehensive text and figures found in ASA's popular Test Preps and Fast-Track Test Guides.
• Performance history reflects individual tests, not just cumulative performance. View a performance graph depicting total score and a score for each subject, as well as review the test (shows your selected answer, the correct answer and explanation).
• All figures are available onscreen. The printed FAA Computer Testing Supplement is sold separate.
• Download and automatically update the database each time the FAA releases new or changed questions; also, the free email subscription service keeps you informed anytime a change is made.
• Realistic test simulation, study and review models, detailed performance graphs, comprehensive study guides and built-in timers give you the confidence you need to ace your FAA exam. Whether you choose to simulate an actual FAA test, or study specific subjects and questions, Prepware has the tools you need.

Also included is the instructor utility, QuizMaker, to generate pop quizzes or exams using actual FAA questions. Quizzes can be of any length and on any specific or combination of subjects or subject matter knowledge codes. You can print exams, student answer sheets, and instructor master correction keys for quick grading, or save the tests so your students can take these electronically.

ASA's Prepware combines all the information applicants will find in the Test Prep Series. Prepware gives you everything you need to be confident and prepared for your FAA Knowledge Exams.
