For many, this may be the first examination setting they have been in for a particularly long time, since their days in school. It can be a foreign environment and creates uncertainty for how to prepare to take the exam and how to conduct yourself when actually sitting it. In reality, preparing for this exam is very similar to how one might prepare for an exam at school. At school, teachers were on hand to explain everything to you, answer questions and help you be best prepared to take an exam successfully. For the agent exam, this should be the same.
