Abstract

Is there a practical and statistical difference in the amount of time a well-prepared student takes to complete an exam and the time it takes a poorly prepared student to complete an exam? Computer-based exams permit the measurement of the time students take to complete exams. This paper uses data from college-level online real estate courses to examine the relationship between test results and test duration.
