Before you take your registry exams, you may have a lot of questions. For example, many of our students wonder: How many questions are on the ARDMS SPI exam? We’re going to go over a short list of frequently asked questions.

Should I Take the SPI or My Specialty First?

In reality, this is entirely up to you. There is no restriction on the order in which you take your registry exams. However, we strongly recommend taking the SPI first because everyone should pass that exam regardless of their specialty. Then, you can take as many specialties as you want afterward.

How Many Questions Are on the ARDMS SPI Exam?

There are approximately 110 questions on the ARDMS SPI exam. The number of questions will vary depending on the version of the test you get. So why does our mock exam have 120 questions? We want to be sure you are overprepared so the actual SPI doesn’t seem as difficult by comparison!

How Many Questions Do I Have to Get Right to Pass?

There’s no exact answer to this because the questions may have different values. You need a total score of 555 out of 700 or higher. In our experience, students who score 80% or higher on our practice quizzes and mock exams have no problem acing the SPI.

If I’m Not Ready, Can I Delay My Exam?

Yes, but you have to reschedule within the allotted time! You can’t reschedule once you are within 72 hours of your exam, and they are serious about that number – down to the hour! So, if you realize you’re not ready, your best option is to reschedule ASAP.

What Is the Fastest Way to Prepare for the ARDMS SPI Exam?

We recommend our self-guided online registry review course. This allows you to learn at your own pace rather than having to schedule weekly tutoring sessions. Of course, we’re still here to help, and you can schedule half-hour or one-hour sessions on an as-needed basis (additional fees apply). Additionally, we can also always answer questions in an email.

We look forward to helping you pass your ARDMS SPI and other registry courses.

When you are preparing for an ARDMS, CCI, or ARRT exam, your schedule will be an essential factor in maintaining the consistency you need for the best results. At My Ultrasound Tutor, we’ve always encouraged students to make their registry exams their primary focus over a short period of about three months rather than trying to learn little bits of information here and there over a long period of time.

How to Set a Workable Study Schedule

One of the key factors involved in being able to prepare rapidly for the exam is simply setting aside enough time to do it. Our recommendation is one hour per day. Now, before you say that’s too much or think about changing careers, let’s see how you can fit an hour of studying each day into the regularly busy schedule of someone who already has a career and a family (and students can apply some of these same principles).

Scheduling Tips

Here is just one possible example of how to fit an hour of studying into your day:

Take 20 minutes with your morning coffee to review some vocabulary terms
Take 20 minutes of your lunch break to study some equations – focus on the relationships (direct or inverse)
Take 20 minutes before bed to go over topics like anatomy, pathology or machine settings

Remember, this is just a sample to prove to you that you can do it. The key is consistency, and that means finding an exam preparation schedule that works for you. You’ll only stick to it if you combine the right motivation with the right schedule. For more tips, see our article about how to find time to study.
