✍️ Sample ACMT Questions & Answers

1. Which Apple process must be completed before returning a replaced part to Apple under the repair program?
Core return process through GSX

Technicians must complete the core return process in GSX (Global Service Exchange) to send replaced parts back to Apple and avoid being charged.

2. A customer complains their Mac drops Wi-Fi connections repeatedly. Which troubleshooting step helps identify if the router or the Mac is at fault?
Test the Mac on a different Wi-Fi network and test another device on the customer's network to isolate the fault

Testing on a different network and testing another device on the same network systematically isolates whether the issue is the Mac's hardware/software or the router/environment.

3. When replacing a MacBook Pro logic board, what is the first step a technician should perform?
Disconnect the battery connector

Disconnecting the battery connector is the first step to prevent shorts and protect both the technician and the device during a logic board replacement.

4. A customer reports their MacBook's battery drains significantly overnight even in sleep mode. Which macOS setting should a technician check first?
Power Nap settings and Wake for network access, which can cause frequent partial wake events

Power Nap and Wake for network access cause the Mac to periodically wake from sleep to check for updates and network activity, which can substantially drain the battery overnight.

5. How should a technician verify the health of an NVMe SSD in a Mac before and after replacement?
Use AST 2 storage tests and check SMART data via 'diskutil info' or System Information

AST 2 performs storage performance and health tests, and SMART data accessible via 'diskutil info /dev/disk0' shows raw drive health metrics.

6. Which item is most important for a technician to wear when working on internal Mac components to prevent ESD?
An anti-static wrist strap connected to an ESD mat or ground point

An anti-static wrist strap bonded to a grounded surface continuously dissipates static charge from the technician's body, preventing ESD damage to components.
