EEG BOARD EXAM WITH CORRECT
ANSWERS 2025-2026 GRADED A+


In a standard EEG setting, how many millimeters/second?
correct answers >> 30


Solve for Sensitivity correct answers >> Voltage/Amplitude


Solve for Amplitude correct answers >> Voltage/Sensitivity


Solve for Amplitude using a Legend correct answers >>
Calibration scale (uV) x wave height (mm) / calibration height
(mm)


Solve for Voltage correct answers >> Sensitivity x Amplitude


Solve for Frequency correct answers >> If given Single wave:
Distance of wave (mm) / paper speed (mm/sec)


If given Duration:
1 / Duration


Solve for Duration using a Legend correct answers >>
Calibration scale (ms) x wave width (mm) / calibration width (mm)

,Solve for Duration correct answers >> Distance of wave
(mm) / paper speed (mm/sec)


Given Frequency:
1 / Frequency


Why would paper speed changed from 30 mm/sec to 60 mm/sec
be done in an EEG? correct answers >> -Capture more detail
on fast waves
-This will stretch out page and waves to be able to help see the
spikes and sharp waves clearer


Why would paper speed changed from 30 mm/sec to 15 or 10
mm/sec be done in an EEG? correct answers >> -Compress
the recording to monitor very slow waves
-Shrinks page (more seconds per page) and helps to pronounce
slow wave
-Capture pattern of slow waves (rhythmic, periodic, arrhythmic)
