All questions on the exam go through multiple rounds of reviews by the individuals involved in the item writing session. (I can’t speak for the most recent CBAP exam item writing session, but the CCBA session involved about 6 rounds of such reviews.) In addition, all questions are reviewed and edited by Castle Worldwide’s professional editing staff.

The questions are not meant to be confusing or convoluted; however, the questions (and, in particular, those specifically based on the BABOK) are meant to ensure that you can distinguish between what is correct and what’s almost correct (or, in some case, what is most correct).

Finally, I extend this offer to all who comment on the exam questions: you are more than welcome to apply to participate in the exam item writing process the next time we do so 😉 .
