Editorial Source

How we built these practice tests

Every question in our Notary bank was written by the 247SimpleTests Editorial Team using the current version of State Secretary of State notary handbooks (public records).. We do not scrape questions from other test-prep sites; we write originals that test the same knowledge in different language. Each question lists the source section it was drawn from.
