How it works

Three steps, and the app does the deciding for you.

No study plan to build, no guessing what to review. Answer questions, and your readiness score tells you exactly where you stand and what to do next.

1

Take the diagnostic

Ten questions across the blueprint set your real starting score in about eight minutes — no self-assessment, no guessing where you stand.

8 minutesSets your baseline
2

Practice in short sessions

Ten-minute sets pulled from your weakest sections. Every answer comes with the reasoning and why each wrong option is wrong — the part that actually moves your score.

Explained answersWeak-area targeting
3

Level up to Exam Ready

Each section climbs from Novice to Exam Ready as coverage and accuracy build. Mock exams unlock at 70 readiness, so your first full attempt actually means something.

Spaced repetition on the concepts you keep missing — each card comes with a mnemonic written for the way this exam actually asks it.

Mad Minute lobby — beat the clock and create a challenge

Mad Minute

Sixty seconds, same ten questions, one shared link. Most correct wins and the faster run breaks the tie.

BCBA league leaderboard ranked by readiness

Fourteen badges tied to real milestones — questions answered, accuracy held, days in a row. Earned, never given.

BCBA app home screen with readiness ring and today's quest

Daily quests, XP and streaks

Three small targets a day, worth 226 XP. Enough structure to start, short enough to actually finish.

Practice by topic — the BCBA level path from Novice to Exam Ready

Mock exams

Two timed, full-length papers — 185 questions in 4 hours each, the exact format of the real exam. They stay locked until 70 readiness, so your first attempt actually means something.

Coverage

Every domain of the BACB Test Content Outline. Nothing padded.

We mapped all nine domains of the BACB 6th Edition Test Content Outline, then wrote questions until each one had enough to matter — weighted the way the real exam weights them.

Who writes the questions

Written and reviewed against the BACB 6th Edition Test Content Outline.

Every question is written and reviewed against the BACB 6th Edition Test Content Outline by people trained in behavior analysis — then rewritten when the outline changes. If an item is ambiguous, we cut it. That is why the bank is 1,070 questions and not 5,000.

Blueprint-mapped

Each item is tagged to one of the nine TCO domains before it ever reaches you.

Reviewed, not generated

Questions are drafted by subject reviewers, checked against the BACB 6th Edition Test Content Outline, and retired when the outline changes.

Explanations first

Nothing ships without the reasoning and a note on why each distractor fails.

Frequently asked

Everything about the BCBA® exam.

Am I eligible to sit for the BCBA exam?
Eligibility runs through the BACB: a qualifying graduate degree, behavior-analytic coursework, and supervised fieldwork, submitted in your certification application. Once the BACB approves it, you schedule your seat at a Pearson VUE test center. Your authorization window lasts two years and allows up to eight attempts, with a minimum 30-day wait between attempts.
How many questions are on the real exam?
185 multiple-choice questions with four answer options each, and 4 hours to complete them at Pearson VUE. 175 are scored and 10 are unscored pilot items — they look identical, so treat every question as if it counts. Both of our full-length mocks mirror the real thing exactly: 185 questions, 4 hours.
What score do I need to pass?
The BACB uses a scaled passing score of 400 on a 0–500 scale, set with a modified Angoff method. In practice that works out to roughly 76% of scored items — about 133 of 175 — though the exact bar shifts slightly with each exam form's difficulty.
How hard is it really?
Genuinely hard. In the BACB's most recent annual data, about 54% of first-time candidates passed, and only about 25% of retakers did. The gap between those two numbers is preparation — which is exactly what this app is built to close on your first attempt.
What does the exam cover?
The nine domains of the BACB's 6th Edition Test Content Outline, in effect since January 2025 — and our question bank uses the exact TCO domain names, from Behaviorism and Philosophical Foundations through Personnel Supervision and Management.
How does this app help me pass?
It removes the decision of what to study. The readiness score weighs coverage and accuracy across all nine TCO domains, then routes each session at your weakest areas. Every answer is explained — including why the other three options fail — so you build the discrimination skills the exam actually tests.
What do the plans cost?
Monthly is $29.99, charged today and renewed monthly. Weekly is $7.99 — good for a short sprint before your exam date. Annual is $149.99, about $12.50 a month. Every plan unlocks everything: Abe, mock exams, flashcards, Mad Minute, and the readiness score. No tiers, no upsells.
How do I cancel?
Open your account settings and tap Cancel subscription. It takes effect at the end of your current period and you keep access until then. No email, no support ticket.
How does the $100 Pass Bonus work?
  • Open to new subscribers aged 18 or over. Not available if you have subscribed to The Health Exams before.

  • Email your official score report from the awarding body to support@thehealthexams.com within 30 days of your exam date. It must clearly show your name, the exam name, the test date, and the result.
  • Once verified, we add three months of free access to the same exam on your account. We'll confirm by email, usually within two business days.
  • The guarantee provides additional access only. It is not a refund and has no cash value.
  • One claim per person, per exam.
  • Not available on licences issued by an instructor, school, or employer, or on accounts with a prior refund or chargeback.
  • This is separate from our 14-day refund policy, which still applies to new subscriptions.
