Exam Overview

The format of the CBCCT exam is computer-based and will be administered at Prometric testing centers around the world. The exam is administered in English and is comprised of 170 multiple choice questions with four answer options, only one of which is best or correct. Many of the questions have images and figures which may be in grayscale or color; cine or static. You are permitted at total of 4½ hour to complete the exam, but you are allotted 5 hours at testing terminal with 15 minutes at the beginning to log-in and review the exam format (visit www.cbccttutorial.org) and 15 minutes at the end to complete a survey. Please arrive at the testing center at least 30 minutes before your scheduled exam time to allow time to check-in. Candidates arriving after the starting time of the exam may not be permitted to sit for the exam due to scheduling issues or other factors at the test site.

What to Bring to the Test Center

In order to be admitted to the testing center, you must present your Admission Document, which includes the signed photograph sent with your application and; a form of unexpired, government-issued photo ID with signature. If your driver’s license does not include a photograph, this is not acceptable form of identification. If you are testing outside or your country of citizenship, you must present a valid passport. If you are testing within your country of citizenship, you must present either a valid passport, driver’s license, national ID or military ID. The identification document must be in Latin characters and contain your photograph and signature. If you are unsure whether your identification is acceptable, please contact the CBCCT office PRIOR to your test date.

All personal items brought with you to the testing center must be locked in a locker for test security purposes, so please limit what you bring to the testing center. No devices with memory capabilities, cell phones, books, calculators, notes, food or beverages are permitted in the testing room. There are no scheduled breaks, but candidates may take restroom breaks, if necessary. Notes may not be taken from the test room and no additional testing time is added for such breaks. You are not permitted to use any electronic devices during a break so it is recommended that you leave such devises at home or in your car.
