Master these evidence-based strategies to maximize your performance on exam day

Before You Start

2

Plan Your Time

Allocate roughly 1.3 minutes per question, leaving 15 minutes for review

3

Start with Easy Questions

Build confidence and momentum by tackling straightforward questions first

4

Flag challenging items to return to later rather than getting stuck

During the Exam

2

Look for Key Words

Watch for terms like 'always,' 'never,' 'most likely,' and 'best'

3

Apply the Pareto Principle

Focus 80% of your effort on the 20% of questions you're most confident about

4

Change answers only when you're certain you made an error

Avoid These Common BCBA Exam Pitfalls

Learn from the mistakes of others to maximize your chances of success

Overthinking Simple Questions

Many test-takers complicate straightforward questions by reading too much into them.

Solution:

If your first instinct seems obvious, it's probably correct. Trust your knowledge.

Running Out of Time

Spending too long on difficult questions leaves insufficient time for easier ones.

Solution:

Set time limits per question and stick to them. Mark and return to challenging items.

Misreading Question Stems

Rushing through questions leads to misunderstanding what's actually being asked.

Solution:

Read each question twice. Identify key terms and what type of response is required.

Second-Guessing Yourself

Changing correct answers due to test anxiety or overthinking reduces scores.

Solution:

Only change answers when you identify a clear error in your reasoning.
