ACA Certification Help

Hi Folks!
This is the first year that my program is offering ACA certification. I'm offering it through Certiport in PS CS5 and I feel really uncomfortable about the readiness of my students. They've taken the certiport practice tests (which are all very similar and I think the kids have them memorized because they are now passing them with flying colors) and we have gone over the areas that they originally had difficulty but I don't know if they are ready to go yet. Each test is $50 a pop and they only have one shot at this.
I know that there is a lot of resources on the objectives but I'm missing those key pieces on teaching and assessing them. Can anyone help me on this? (I posted on this a while ago but made the error of listing the test as the ACE exam. I meant ACA.)
Thank you!!

I have been giving my students the Photoshop ACA test for a couple of years now and I find that if they are passing the practice test then they should have no problem with the actual test. I use the free adobe resources as a refresher for the students. Most have already been through the Adobe Classroom in a Book tutorial and have been working with Photoshop for a year or two before they take the test. I have not had any students that passed the practice test that didn't pass the actual test.
