Differences between SAS Base cert (old test) and the new "performance" test?

ElistonCole — Wed, 08 Jan 2020 15:02:06 GMT

Has anyone taken the NEW SAS base cert test (you have access to SAS)?

I've found a couple practice questions for the NEW test, but they are all remarkably easier than the average question on the old test which seems like it can't be right.

Just wondering if anyone has seen any practice questions from the new test that aren't the super simple ones they have on their site?

Hello, I have taken the new test. There aren't any free resources like you're looking for. The next best thing is to purchase/borrow a copy of the SAS Certified Specialist prep guide: https://www.sas.com/store/books/categories/certification-guide/sas-certified-specialist-prep-guide-base-programming-using-sas-9-4/prodBK_72102_en.html

This new version prepares you for the performance exam. There are programming scenarios and updated chapter quiz questions in this new certification guide. I hope this helps a little.
