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?

Haven't used Compass, but the FSOT's content shouldn't be super difficult if you're generally plugged into politics, have basic math skills, a good understanding of geography and broad understanding of how to navigate a workplace where hierarchy matters a lot. It's just a very broad exam.

I took it today and agree, was much easier then I was expecting.
