Getting ready for your BCBA exam? You’re in the right place.
I created RBTExamPrep.com to give you the most realistic BCBA mock exam experience possible 185 questions designed to feel just like the real thing.
My goal isn’t just to help you pass, but to help you understand every concept deeply.
Whether you get a question right or wrong, you’ll see detailed feedback explaining why, so you’ll be ready for that type next time. I want you to walk into test day feeling confident, calm, and prepared.
Many students have shared that these questions felt almost identical to the real exam and that’s exactly what I was aiming for. I’d love to hear how you did please share your score in the comments below! It really helps encourage others who are preparing for the exam. 🙂
I built this site to keep high-quality BCBA prep resources free and accessible for everyone, which is why it’s supported by ads. If it helped you, it’d mean a lot if you shared it with your peers.
If you want to keep practicing, check out the BCBA section for more tests and study materials!

#1. A patient’s primary care physician explains that consuming 10 cans of tuna daily poses significant health risks due to mercury levels, supporting this claim with evidence from recent, peer-reviewed medical research and established dietary guidelines. The patient, however, dismisses the doctor’s warning, stating, ‘I read something online that said 10 cans of tuna will actually make me feel better, and I feel great already, so I’m not worried.’ In this scenario, what fundamental scientific attitude, as applied (or misapplied) by the patient, is being demonstrated when they question the doctor’s expert opinion and empirical evidence based on their personal experience and alternative, less rigorous information?
Philosophical doubt is a healthy skepticism that encourages one to continually question the truthfulness and validity of scientific findings as well as personal accounts and to hold all conclusions as tentative until rigorously confirmed It promotes a critical evaluation of all evidence In this scenario the patient is demonstrating philosophical doubt by not immediately accepting the validity of the doctors scientific research and expert opinion Instead they are questioning it based on their own research which is implied to be less rigorous like something online and personal anecdotal experience I feel great already While the patients application of philosophical doubt may not be scientifically sound as it prioritizes anecdotal evidence over empirical data the act of questioning and not readily accepting the given information is an instance of this scientific attitude Parsimony refers to choosing the simplest explanation that adequately accounts for all observed phenomena Determinism is the assumption that the universe is a lawful and orderly place where phenomena occur in relation to other events Empiricism is the objective observation of phenomena of interest which the patient is not doing in a scientific or systematic way
