How to use this

  1. Time it. The real exam gives 1.5 h for Scientific Foundations (95 items) and 2.5 h for Practical/Applied (125 items) — roughly 72 seconds per question. Give yourself 4 hours for all 200.
  2. Do not peek. Explanations stay hidden until you press Grade.
  3. Read the per-domain breakdown, not the total. A 74% overall that hides a 45% in Program Design is a fail waiting to happen — Program Design is the single heaviest domain on the real exam.
  4. Re-take after review. Reload the page to reset.

Program Design is 42 of 44 items at Application or Analysis — memorising tables will not pass it. Organization and Administration is the mirror image: 11 of 16 items are pure Recall and none are Analysis — it is the cheapest domain to bank.
