Can I just look up the answers in the book during the exam?
ICC Exams are designed to test minimal competency on the subject matter. Simply being able to locate information in a reference is not sufficient to demonstrate this competency, and time constraints are set in consideration of this fact. There is not enough time on any exam to look up every question on an exam. Reference materials are allowed and encouraged to supplement the knowledge of a subject. We recommend becoming very familiar with all reference material in order to minimize time searching for answers.
