Standard Questions

Standard exam questions are graded to assess a candidate's competency for a specific credential. They come in various forms, designed to evaluate the candidate's knowledge and skills comprehensively. This variety ensures that all aspects of the candidate's abilities are thoroughly assessed, providing a well-rounded understanding of their qualifications.

Pretest Questions

Pretest questions are frequently included at the beginning of an exam. These questions, while not graded, play a vital role in the overall assessment process. They help in identifying important areas for further development and evaluation. By providing insights into the structure and content of the test, pretest questions contribute to a deeper understanding of the material being assessed. Thus, even though they do not directly impact the final score, their inclusion serves an essential purpose in enhancing the effectiveness of the examination.

Exam Variations

Essay questions are a common type of exam prompt that require students to provide written responses, often in the form of sentences, paragraphs, or short essays. These questions are intended to assess a candidate's understanding of the subject, critical thinking abilities, and capacity to communicate ideas clearly and effectively.

A keyword essay, on the other hand, adopts a unique approach to assessment. It presents a prewritten short essay with blank spaces to fill in, alternatively candidates may be asked to select the most suitable word or term from a dropdown menu or from a short list of available options to complete the sentences. This format is specifically designed to evaluate a candidate's understanding of key terms and concepts critical to the subject matter.
Video analysis is a game-changing tool for evaluating sports techniques and movement, giving athletes, coaches, and fitness professionals a level of detail that often goes unnoticed in real-time. By allowing repeated reviews, slow-motion playback, and frame by frame scrolling it reveals critical insights that enhance decision-making and lead to more effective coaching, training, and rehabilitation.

This format is designed to assess a candidate's grasp of the standard and their ability to translate collected data into actionable, insightful report. 


When tackling multiple-choice questions, it's essential to start with the fundamentals of effective test-taking: carefully read the directions first, ensure you fully understand the question, and approach the multiple-choice options with a clear, systematic strategy. Mastering specific techniques for answering multiple-choice questions can significantly enhance your performance.

1. Select the Most Suitable Response

Multiple-choice questions often include several answers that seem correct. Your goal is to identify the best answer among the good ones. If you've narrowed it down to two options and both appear valid, choose the one that stands out as better, not just acceptable. When making your final selection, always revisit the question to ensure your choice aligns with its intent.

2. Navigate Qualifiers

Qualifiers are words that modify the meaning of a statement, such as "always," "most," "equal," "good," or "bad." In multiple-choice questions, qualifiers can determine whether an option is correct or incorrect. Consider these two nearly identical statements: "It often rains in Florida" and "It always rains in Florida." While the first statement is true, the qualifier "always" in the second statement renders it false. To avoid errors, pay close attention to qualifiers by circling them in test questions or answer choices. This simple habit can make a significant difference in understanding and answering questions accurately.

To beat qualifiers you need to know the qualifier families:
  • Always, usually, sometimes, never
  • All, most, some, none (no)
  • Great, much, little, no
  • More, equal, less
  • Good, bad
  • Is, is not


When an answer option includes a qualifier from a specific group, try substituting it with each of the other qualifiers from that group, one by one. This approach helps identify which qualifier fits best. If the original qualifier in the answer option proves to be the most suitable, the option is true. However, if a different qualifier from the group fits better, the answer option is false.

3. Recognize the Negatives

Negatives can appear as words like no, not, none, or never, or as prefixes such as il- (illegitimate), un- (unwise), or im- (improper). It's important to pay attention to negatives, as they can completely alter the meaning of a sentence. Negatives can change the meaning of a sentence. When two negatives are used, they cancel each other out, leaving the sentence’s meaning unchanged. When encountering negatives in a question, make it a habit to mark them. Focus on understanding the core meaning of the question or statement without the negative wording. This approach will help you more effectively determine whether the answer is true or false.

4. Use Grammar Clues

While questions may vary in format, all must adhere to proper grammar rules. Even if an answer contains accurate information, you can eliminate it if it is grammatically incorrect or does not make sense.

5. Start by Marking Only the Sure Things, Then Make Three Passes Through the Test

Start by answering all the questions that come to you easily on your first pass through the test. For the more challenging ones, highlight any qualifiers or negatives and eliminate as many incorrect options as possible. This approach sets you up for a stronger second pass. Sometimes, another question might even provide a clue to one that initially stumped you. On your second pass, focus on identifying the “best” answer from the remaining options, giving extra attention to the trickier questions. Finally, on your third pass, make an educated guess on any questions that remain unanswered—remember, a guess is always better than leaving it blank.
