Preparation

The ExAC Preparation Guide contains useful information for preparing to write the exam:

  • An overview of the content of the exam
  • Practical advice for successful completion
  • The rules to be followed during the exam
  • The list of permitted and prohibited items
  • The list of General and Specific Objectives on which the exam content is based
  • Sample questions

A new version of the guide is published each year. Read it carefully before the exam sitting.
