I wish you have updated your test questions. But I am happy with the customer service. Also, I hope you can include other test locations.

Not a good experience

I would not recommend this organization for your Notary exam. I am a real estate broker and a graduate of the University of California. When I took the real estate brokers’ exam, I was the first one finished and I passed first time around. Tests are easy for me. I took this notary class and studied the same way by taking the practice exams over and over until I received 100% on every test. I knew all the answers. But when I took the actual notary exam, 2/3 of the questions I had never heard before! Sure enough, I scored 57% and failed. Then, when I called them during normal business hours to seek help and get answers, they are closed!

Thank you for sending in your concern, our course material is reviewed and approved by the California Secretary of State to provide the necessary information to pass the test and become a Notary in California. It would be helpful to know what questions you felt weren't covered to allow us to highlight that information.

Very easy to use

Very easy to use. I liked the verbal and not just reading. The quiz and test was helpful. There was information on the Notary exam that wasn't covered (just a few things)

Great class

Class covered all aspects needed in an easy to follow format with unit quizzes, Unit 6 could have been restructured in a way that better facilitated retention of a lot of critical information. Final Exam was sufficiently challenging to prepare for the State Exam.

Just took the exam and only about an eighth of the Practice test questions were on it. I bought the 3 hour refresher course and immediately emailed asking if I could upgrade to the 6 hour course and never received a response.

Hello Michela and thank you for your feedback. We take our student feedback seriously and are always updating our courses. Our courses and exams come from the Secretary of State requirements, and although all their state exam questions are covered in the course material the schools do not know what questions will be asked on the state exams.

Online course missing topics on the State Exam

Went to take the State Exam yesterday, 4/27/2024. I felt pretty confident, since I reviewed the material in the online course. To my surprise, about 50% of the State Exam had questions that were not covered in the online course, i.e. quitclaim deed, deed of reconveyance. I'll be surprised if I pass the state exam. I don't recommend using this online course with the current material it covers.

Missing questions or examples from the real exam.

Went through this course passed the final exam and registered for the exam. Studied and was fully confident that I could pass. I was wrong, first question I saw on the exam asked about “quitclaim” and this term was absolutely foreign to me. I’m sure I got all the penalties and fines correct but was lost when it came to deeds and power of attorney questions. I’m not sure if this was covered in the content, but absolutely not when it came to the section end questions nor final exam. I can not recommend this program because, I would expect that this program would fully prepare you for any version or form of questions found during the notary exam. Easy to sign up, class was semi easy to get through and answer questions in the end. Unfortunately not the end result I expected sorry to say. This class did get me to go and try, but did not get me ready.

There was a glitch in the system and would not let me answer a question at the end of Unit 6 even though I knew the answer. Tech Support just skipped that section and said I could go back to it after I finished the exam but it still would not let me past that portion therefor if I was to take the test I would know the rest of that section.

Thank you for letting us know that you had a problem with one of the quiz questions, our technical team is looking into what caused this to happen as it isn't an issue for other student's taking the same course. Congratulations on completing the course and again thanks for letting us know what you experienced.

I tried other vendors but I was very satisfied with Notary Class Online. It gives you resources and, it’s simple to understand, after you finish your course. They provide information and steps to finish your Notary Appointment with success. I will definitely recommend them.

It was difficult to take notes

It was difficult to take notes. I would have liked to be able to copy:paste notes and print specific pages. Plus I could not go back and review, lessons were closed off
I felt like someone was just reading the Notary Public Handbook so it was cumbersome to sort through all the legal jargon for the actual point of the statement.
But your class was very thorough I'm sure covered all salient information, I have not yet taken the state exam
Thank you

Very good course

Very good course, I've used this online course to renew my notary commission at least 3, probably more, times and find it prepares me for the Exam. 1 thing missing is a course notebook as I learn by listening and then reading while making numerous markups.
