Test Preparation
All test questions come from content in the main training manual for CUR072 – Fundamentals of the Merative Cúram SPM Platform for Business Analysts 7.X. In addition to the course manual, it is strongly recommended that you study the Review the Concepts questions in the CUR072 exercise workbook.
- Take the Practice Test (P002) before attempting the Certification Test (C002). Your score provides a clear indication of whether you are ready.
- Try to take the test approximately 2–5 weeks after completing this training course — enough time to study without losing what you learned.
- The Review the Concepts questions within the training course are a good way to test yourself. Do not take the test until you can answer all in-course questions from memory.
- For multiple-answer questions, the question stem will include prompts like "Which three…" followed by "Select 3." Use these to help select or eliminate options.
- After completing the test, you will receive a score report showing how you performed in each section. Use it to identify areas for improvement if you need to retake.
