How to use these exams

  1. Read the official exam guide for your certification (linked on each card).
  2. Take Exam A timed, without notes. Flag every question you're unsure about, even if you think you got it right.
  3. Copy the report at the end into Claude and ask it to explain your misses and plan your study.
  4. Study the weak sections in the Databricks docs, then take Exam B, then C.
  5. Book the real exam when you score 80% or more on an exam you haven't seen.

Exam controls

  • Flag (F): mark a question to revisit; flags show in the jump map and the report.
  • Change answer (C): fix a misclick after the reveal. Changes are counted separately so your score stays honest.
  • Export / Import: save your progress to a file and continue on another device.
  • Keyboard: 1–5 to answer, ← → to move.

What these are, and aren't

  • Original practice questions, not real exam questions and not braindumps.
  • The real exams don't give feedback, don't let you see objectives, and Databricks doesn't publish the passing score; 70% here is a rough target, not the official cut-off.
  • Databricks renames and changes products often. If an answer looks outdated, trust the current docs.
