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.

#1. A client frequently elopes from their mother when in public spaces, such as grocery stores. To better understand this challenging behavior, a BCBA meets with the client’s mother. During this meeting, the BCBA asks the mother detailed questions about what typically happens immediately before the elopement (antecedents), what the elopement behavior looks like, and what usually occurs immediately after the behavior (consequences), including how she responds. Given this scenario, what type of data collection or assessment method is the BCBA primarily employing?
The scenario describes the BCBA gathering information about the clients behavior by interviewing a stakeholder the clients mother This method where information is obtained through verbal reports questionnaires or rating scales rather than direct realtime observation of the behavior is known as indirect assessment While the questions are focused on gathering information about antecedents behaviors and consequences ABC the act of asking a stakeholder about these events rather than directly observing them as they happen classifies it as indirect Direct ABC data collection A would involve the BCBA or another trained observer physically present and recording antecedents behaviors and consequences as they occur in the natural environment Functional analysis B is a direct experimental assessment that systematically manipulates antecedents and consequences to identify the function of a behavior Scatterplot analysis D is a form of direct data collection used to identify patterns of behavior across time eg time of day day of week but also requires direct observation or existing records
