It was painful

It was painful.
The course is overloaded with non-necessary information, not helping to focus on what is really important. The timing is annoying, forcing you to spend 3-4 mins on the page with just a few sentences.

Quizzes/exams contain a lot of non-relevant questions and topics not covered by the course.

Still, it works and you will get your certificate of completion at the end.

For an online test it was challenging…

For an online test it was challenging to a point you had to read and study,the answers to the test was all in the reading and studying a bit ofvwhat your reading,then you took your test and graded you on that test if you failed you went back and did it again,it was fair and made you grasp what you needed to learn about boars and waterway navigations and safety, there's alot more to learn but it gave you basics and enough to know how to boat safely in the waters.have fun keep learning boating is a fun sport. ......be safe no drinking and operating!!

Close to Perfect

Generally, this program was easy to access and easy to navigate. I received my boater's license promptly after completing the required course. The only qualms I have would be in regards to the typos and even inconsistencies in the testing process. There was a question about the distance one should remain from military vessels, commercial vessels, etc., and the correct answer was not an option in the multiple choice. Part of the problem is the fact that both standard U.S. measurements are used as well as metric. I would appreciate all the measurements to be consistent. Standard or metric (either is fine): Pick one.
