(2) Practice Examination IREB. Requirements Engineering – Foundation Level. Explanation of the practice examination: The practice examination at hand serves the purpose of illustrating an actual IREB Requirements Engineering Foundation Level exam. Moreover, it can be used during preparation for simulating an actual exam situation. This practice examination resembles an actual exam in terms of form, structure and style. The basic difference is that the exam at hand only comprises 34 questions while an actual exam comprises approximately 45 questions. Therefore, if you want to simulate a realistic examination situation, you should complete the exam at hand within 55 minutes. A real examination with approximately 45 questions takes 75 minutes. For more information on the examination refer to the document “Certified Professional for Requirements Engineering (CPRE) Foundation Level – Examination Guideline” at http://www.ireb.org. If you want to practice an examination under realistic conditions, print out the practice examination at hand and answer the questions as in a closed book exam (without means like training materials or books) within 55 minutes. Make sure that you encounter as little disturbance as possible during this time. In order to pass this exam, as in an actual examination, 60 percent of the possible number of points have to be achieved, which is 31.2 out of 52 possible points of the practice examination at hand. Evaluation of the results: In the document “Answers to the practice examination“ you will find the correct answers. To determine the number of points you have achieved, you have to apply the rules for the evaluation of the answers stated in the document “Certified Professional for Requirements Engineering (CPRE) Foundation Level – Examination Guideline”, section “Three types of questions” (available at http://www.ireb.org). As an alternative, you can print out the “Correction aid for the practice examination” (pdf) and mark your answers in this correction aid. By summing up the points given there you can get your total number of points in a simple way. The spreadsheet „Correction aid for the practice examination“ (xls) does work in a similar way and automatically displays your total number of points as well as the information whether you passed the exam.. Terms of use: The practice examination at hand as well as parts of it may be distributed in unmodified form and without charge and may be applied for training purposes provided IREB e.V. is stated as source and owner of the copyright..
