# CCDV-F Practice Exam 2

A second full-length, blueprint-weighted practice exam with new, harder items.

import PracticeExam from '../../../components/PracticeExam.astro';

This is a **second full-length CCDV-F practice exam** with **53 entirely new items** — none repeat Practice Exam 1 or the domain-page questions. It is pitched **slightly harder** than Exam 1: more multi-constraint scenarios, more `FIRST` / `MOST cost-effective` / `TWO` qualifiers, and distractors that are individually plausible until you apply the binding constraint. The distribution matches the blueprint exactly, so your per-domain score here is a realistic booking-readiness signal.

## Instructions

- **53 items · 120 minutes.** Budget roughly 2 minutes per item; flag and return to the hard ones.
- Scoring is scaled 100–1000, pass **720**. As a study heuristic, aim for **≥ 80% raw** (≈ 43/53) before booking.
- Items are **multiple-choice** (select one) or **multiple-response** (select two — the item says so). There is **no guessing penalty**, so answer everything.
- Watch the qualifiers: `FIRST` asks for the initial correct action, `MOST cost-effective` ranks on cost given the constraints, and `TWO` means exactly two correct options.

## Domain distribution

| Domain | Weight | Items here |
| --- | --- | --- |
| D1 · Applications and Integration | 33.1% | 18 |
| D2 · Model Selection and Optimization | 16.8% | 9 |
| D3 · Agents and Workflows | 14.7% | 9 |
| D4 · Prompt and Context Engineering | 11.0% | 6 |
| D5 · Tools and MCPs | 10.6% | 5 |
| D6 · Security and Safety | 8.1% | 4 |
| D7 · Claude Code | 3.1% | 1 |
| D8 · Eval, Testing and Debugging | 2.6% | 1 |

## How to use both exams

- **Sit Practice Exam 1 first.** Use it as a diagnostic to find weak domains, then restudy those domain pages before returning.
- **Use Practice Exam 2 as the booking gate.** Its harder, multi-constraint stems are closer to the pressure of the real exam. Score **≥ 80% raw here**, with no single heavy domain (D1/D2/D3) badly lagging, before you book.
- **Compare per-domain results across both exams.** A domain that is strong on Exam 1 but weak on Exam 2 usually means you learned the recall facts but not the multi-constraint reasoning — go back to that domain's scenario walkthrough and misconceptions table.

## Score interpretation

| Raw score (of 53) | Reading |
| --- | --- |
| ≥ 47 (≈ 89%) | Strong — comfortably above the likely pass bar even on harder items |
| 43–46 (≈ 81–87%) | On track — book once no heavy domain lags |
| 38–42 (≈ 72–79%) | Borderline — revisit weak domains, especially D1/D2/D3 |
| < 38 (< 72%) | Not ready — restudy the heavy domains and re-test |

## Take the practice exam

The **interactive mode** runs a timed sitting one question at a time and ends with your score, a per-domain breakdown and a full correction; the **review mode** underneath lists every question with its options and the answer hidden until you ask for it.
