Hmm my experience with Astro (final grade: A)
-2 MCQ test, 1 MCQ final
-first lecturer is pretty good, second one comes off to me as being pretty dry
-content for first half is ok, gets really heavy later on
-yes got question banks available, some say might be outdated, but I think it might help to some degree
-the first lecturer will give some sample questions every week, take pictures, cause I think it might be helpful
-best way to study would be to study consistently (though frankly speaking I crammed the last few chapters)
In the end, it really is YMMV. I got A but my friend ain't so lucky cause it pulled his grades down.
A lot of people say don't take astro, and maybe I will say no too
But you see what I describe fits you or not... if don't like then don't take ba
