examination. Which statement by the student indicates correct
understanding of computer adaptive testing (CAT)?
A. “Every candidate receives the same number of questions.”
B. “The examination difficulty adjusts according to my
responses.”
C. “Questions become easier after every correct answer.”
D. “The test continues until all questions in the test bank are
completed.”
Correct Answer: B
Rationale:
Computer adaptive testing adjusts the difficulty level of
questions based on the candidate’s previous responses. Correct
answers generally lead to more difficult questions, whereas
incorrect answers lead to less difficult questions. The number
of questions varies among candidates. The test does not
require completion of the entire test bank.
