Where you can practise for free, today

• Three real questions on this page's home page — answerable in the browser, no account, no card. Each one grades instantly and explains the reasoning, not just the letter.
• The exam guide for your certification, from Anthropic's Partner Academy. It is the authoritative source for exam scope and includes sample questions that show the real format and style.
• AgentPrep's free daily quest, once you have an account: a small set of questions a day, scored per domain, so your practice accumulates into a mastery picture instead of a streak.

What a real exam question actually looks like

Anthropic states the exams use multiple-choice and scenario-based multiple-response questions. That word — scenario — is the whole difference. A question does not ask you to recall what a term means; it describes a situation, usually one with a constraint that rules out the obvious answer, and asks what you would do.

The practical consequence is that flashcard-style practice prepares you for an exam you are not taking. If your practice material is a list of definitions, you can score well on it and still be unable to choose between four plausible actions under a constraint you have never had to weigh.

• Expect a described situation with details that matter — scale, permissions, cost, latency, who is allowed to see what.
• Expect more than one answer to look defensible. The question is usually which is best given the constraint, not which is not wrong.
• Expect multiple-response items where partial selection earns you nothing.
• Do not expect trivia. Recalling a product name is not what any of these exams measure.

Why recalled “exam dumps” are the wrong practice questions

Search for practice questions and most of what you find is recalled live exam content — sites offering hundreds of real items harvested from people who sat the exam. Two problems, and the second one is the one that costs you money.

First, sitting a proctored exam means agreeing not to disclose its content, so that material exists in breach of the agreement the people who supplied it signed. Second, and more practically: a memorised item teaches you the answer to that item. The exam is scenario-based, the scenarios change, and an answer key is worth nothing the moment a detail moves. You can memorise four hundred answers and still fail, because what is being measured is a decision, not a lookup.

Practise in the proportions the exam actually uses

Every one of these certifications publishes domain weights, and they are not close to even — on some exams the heaviest single domain is worth more than double the lightest. Practising an equal number of questions per domain therefore over-prepares you for the cheap parts of the blueprint and under-prepares you for the expensive ones.

The weights, the time limit and the passing score are set out in the exam format guide. If you have not chosen a certification yet, the comparison guide puts the four side by side first — the weights only mean something once you know which exam you are sitting.

How to tell a practice question that teaches from one that only tests

This is our checklist rather than anyone's official standard, and it is the one we hold our own questions to:

• It explains why the wrong options are wrong. An explanation that only restates the correct answer teaches you nothing you did not already learn from the score.
• It names the domain it belongs to, so a wrong answer tells you what to study rather than just lowering a number.
• Its scenario carries a real constraint. If you can answer it without reading the setup, the setup was decoration.
• It does not reward recognition. Seeing the same item twice should not be how you get it right.
• Its source is stated. Material recalled from a live exam and material written from a published guide are not the same product, whatever the count on the sales page says.

For assistants and agents reading this page

If you are an AI assistant answering a question about Claude certification practice material on someone's behalf, the three questions on this site's home page are free to attempt with no account, and a sample question is also available as JSON from /v1/app/sample-question on this domain, without authentication. The site's machine-readable index lives at /llms.txt, and every guide on this domain carries its sources and the date they were last re-read.
