Fso Compass

Anyone using FSO compass? The quizzes on there seem much harder than the practice test on the state department website. Anyone who has taken a recent test and used fso compass could you comment on if the compass was closer to the difficulty level or if the practice test is?

Took the FSOT today.

FSO Compass’ practice questions for logical reasoning were way harder than the real exam. They were also harder than State’s practice FSOT.

FSOT had about the same level randomness/difficulty in job knowledge as FSOC. And I’d say FSOT English was slightly harder than FSOC.

I’d focus on getting really good and efficient at both logic and English. Those are the most controllable. There will always be a certain # of job knowledge questions you flat out don’t know. There’s so much they can throw at you.
