All multiple choice. Best to take the two day hands on class if you can. Test is very similar to the ACE exam.

Rebecca,

I have not personally taken the exam, however, I have suggestion.

You might want to visit the career guide on this portal and see if anyone has submitted a review regarding the NESTA certification.

I hope this is of help to you.

Best to you.

Yes, the review tests are adequate for scoring well on the exam.

It has 125 questions, and is a 2 hour proctored multiple choice exam.

Congratulations on being NESTA Certified! :)

Sincerely,

Saad Khayoom

I have a background in sports science and been an athlete etc...the new NESTA PT course was excellent and really comprehensive. I learnt everything in the manual and via the videos and that took me a good 2.5 months working about 2-4 hours a day. It's a lot of work to learn everything pretty much off by heart (perhaps that is not necessary to pass the test, but I want to be the best i can be), ..but don't read into people saying 'it's easy' - I take the exam next week and I heard it's not that hard.....so might be back with a review of that! Was a very thorough course and the main thing is I learnt one heck of a lot. Highly recommended!

I passsed my NASM and the practice tests are like the real test. If you do flash cards and the practice tests you should do well.
