    are there many questions dealing with calculations? just want to know how much i should focus on learning terminology & knowing formula/calculations.

    Bella,

    I can promise you that there will be hardly any calculation-type questions. Any calculations on the exam can be done IN YOUR HEAD.

    Eg,

    A wholesaler buys a product for $100 and sells it for $150. What is his mark-up percentage?

    A) 100%
    B) 25%
    C) 150%
    D) 50%

    So don't worry at all about calculations! Learn the terminology, terminology, terminology!

    Hope this helps,
    Snazzlefrag

    I agree completely. Terminology is everything in this one, and InstantCert is more than enough to learn it.
