Institute of Nutritional Endocrinology (INE): Detoxification: Pre-Test

Detoxification
Pre-Test

 Completed the Pre-Test.

 Recorded notes for any questions you missed to help focus your study.

ine-pre-testThe purpose of the pretest is to see how much you know about a topic from the start.  The results will help you to determine where to focus your energy in studying.

The test is not graded.  You will never be “penalized” even if you get nothing correct. If desired (and you want to reveal the correct answers), you can repeat the pre-test as many times as you wish.

I repeat for the perfectionists: This is a learning tool only; no grading!

 

Pre-Test Notes:

Once you complete your pre-test, make a note of any questions you didn’t get correct so that you can watch for related information in the core content training and know where to focus your learning.
