Ron, When I went for my Extra I used
AA9WP.COM
It seem to work quite nicely.

Ron,
When I took the extra a few years ago, I used hamtestonline.com. Not only
was it perfectly accessible, but, as you have pointed out, Ron, it has a
study mode and a simulated test mode. I could use it both at home and at
work with equal ease whenever I had a few moments and I felt more than
prepared on test day. There is a subscription fee, however. I think I paid
$35 or so for the extra course but its good for 2 or 3 years as I recall so
even if you don't pass the test you still have time to study and take it
again. I felt it was worth every penny. The address is:
