CBAP Exam Pattern
The CBAP Certification exam is for 3.5 hours duration. The exam
is based on the BABOK Guide; however, it is not the sole source of
questions on the exam. Passing marks is based on the cut score
using a psychometric procedure. Exam format includes:
150 questions
Some questions based on comprehension (e.g., definition, recall,
etc.) and others
based on situational analysis (e.g. given a scenario, which is
the best course of action)
where you must perform analysis to arrive at the answer.
Note: The IIBA Certification Body will not publicly reveal the
cut score or the pass rate for any exam. Raw scores are normalized
to a standard scale. 500 is the minimum score needed to pass, not
the maximum possible score and is mentioned in the failed exam
result.
