  1. What is the purpose of the Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) many CBT programs require candidates to accept before the exam begins?

    Answer: To prohibit sharing exam content with others

    The NDA legally prohibits candidates from reproducing or distributing copyrighted exam content after their session.

  2. In a CBT environment, what does 'item banking' refer to?

    Answer: A large pool of validated questions from which exam forms are drawn

    An item bank is a repository of pre-tested, validated questions used to build multiple equivalent exam forms.

  3. Which action is strictly prohibited during a CBT exam session?

    Answer: Using a personal cell phone or smart device

    Personal electronic devices are banned in the testing room because they could be used to access outside information or capture exam content.

  4. What is 'test security' in the context of a CBT program?

    Answer: Measures taken to prevent cheating and protect exam integrity

    Test security encompasses all procedures—NDA, proctoring, surveillance, and data controls—designed to prevent fraud and protect the validity of scores.

  5. What typically happens if a candidate arrives late and misses the check-in deadline for a CBT appointment?

    Answer: The appointment is forfeited and they may need to reschedule and pay again

    Most CBT programs have strict check-in windows; arriving after the cutoff results in a no-show, which forfeits the appointment fee and requires rescheduling.

  6. Which of the following is a common feature of the CBT tutorial shown before the exam begins?

    Answer: It demonstrates how to navigate the exam interface and use tools like flagging

    The pre-exam tutorial familiarizes candidates with the on-screen interface, navigation buttons, and available tools so time is not wasted during the real exam.

  7. What does 'scaled scoring' mean in the context of CBT results?

    Answer: Raw scores are converted to a standardized scale to ensure comparability across different exam forms

    Scaled scoring converts raw performance to a common scale, making scores from different test forms directly comparable even if question difficulty varies.
