# CCAR-P Practice Exam

A full-length, 63-item timed practice exam for the Claude Certified Architect – Professional credential, distributed by blueprint weight with answer key and score interpretation.

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


This is a **full-length, 63-item** practice exam for CCAR-P. The questions are **new** (not reused from the domain pages) and distributed to match the blueprint. Sit it under exam conditions before you rely on the score.

## Instructions

- **Time:** 120 minutes. Set a timer and do not pause it.
- **Format:** multiple-choice (select one) and multiple-response (select two); each stem states how many to select.
- **Scoring:** the real exam is scaled 100–1000 with a pass at **720**. There is **no guessing penalty** — answer everything. As a raw proxy, **aim for ≥ 80%** (≈ 50/63) before booking.
- **Method:** read the whole stem, identify the binding constraint, eliminate the constraint-blind / over-engineered / prompt-as-enforcement / self-report / silent-failure / recall-only / aggregate-metric distractors, then choose.

## Score interpretation

| Raw score (of 63) | Percent | Reading |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 57–63 | 90–100% | Exam-ready; strong across all domains |
| 50–56 | 80–89% | Likely pass; shore up your weakest domain |
| 45–49 | 71–79% | Borderline; drill D3/D1/D4 and re-sit |
| 38–44 | 60–70% | Not ready; systematic gaps — restudy by domain |
| < 38 | < 60% | Restudy the full course before re-attempting |

The real exam scales 100–1000 with a pass at **720**; treat **≥ 80% raw (≈ 50/63)** here as your go/no-go line, and confirm you have **no single domain** far below the rest.

## Take the practice exam

Two ways to use the questions below: 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 one per line and the answer hidden until you ask for it.
