Do you also have this doubt? After learning a bit of Python, you think about taking the Python Level 2 exam. I had the same thought and only registered at the last stage of enrollment. Initially, I was hesitant about whether to pay 100 yuan. What if I fail and it goes to waste? I bought a two-hour lab opportunity, and I had all these concerns. But don’t be afraid; self-doubt is completely normal. I managed to pass with a low score after cramming for just one month before the semester started while working part-time throughout the winter break (but I sincerely advise against following my example, as I passed with a low score despite having some foundation).
If you can solve this problem, it indicates a solid foundation, and you can afford to slack off a bit in the early stages. However, you need to put in more effort later on.First, let’s talk about the composition of the Python Level 2 exam. There are 40 multiple-choice questions, each worth 1 point, and you must score more than 20 to pass.There are 3 basic operation questions, each worth 5 points, and you must score full marks to ensure passing.There are 2 simple application questions, one worth 10 points and the other 15 points; you must get at least one correct to pass.There is 1 comprehensive application question, consisting of 3 sub-questions, purely coding, which requires more time to master. If it’s close to the exam and you don’t have time, decisively give up on this part and invest more time in the multiple-choice questions.I recommend a preparation time of two months: the first twenty days for building a foundation, the next twenty days for practicing questions, correcting mistakes, and summarizing, and the last twenty days for systematic practice to maintain a sense of the questions.The question practice app I used is Xiaohei Classroom, which has free learning videos on Bilibili that enhance the learning effect.Finally, for those who want to take the Python exam, don’t hesitate; prepare early and invest in your learning. You won’t regret it.
