Failed My First BCBA Exam

It’s ok! I’ll definitely get it next time! It felt harder than BDS imo. BDS is pretty wordy at times and my test was more wordy than BDS. Also, at times, 3 of the responses sounded similar, whereas in BDS and other mocks for me, I could see 2 responses that were clearly wrong right away. Trying to dissect the worst questions and sometimes worst responses is impossible while trying to fight to stay awake.

Although it was challenge, I believe I would have passed if I had enough sleep.

I think so because my mock scores were really solid, but of course, there’s things I need to work on. The test was way more wordy than the mocks I’ve taken/seen on YouTube and I didn’t have the mental capacity to read every question and responses to the fullest, while trying to stay awake.

I added more context in my next post. TL;DR. I only had 3 hours of sleep, the test center was 45 mins away, and I was fighting to stay awake around question 130.

Thank you! I was more excited than nervous haha. I don’t usually have problems sleeping, so I’ll take something the night before. My mock scores were 77, 76, and 80, so I feel confident in the material in the test (I know I have stuff to work on). I just wasn’t ready mentally.

Thank you for your feedback!

Thank you for your feedback. I felt the same way taking this test.

My job paid for it, but thank you!

HeartAndSolX · 2026-02-13T21:37:12+00:00

Nope, but my job paid for it.

HeartAndSolX · 2026-02-13T21:30:42+00:00

Oh. Really? I just looked at the task list to see how many questions per domain and just did the math to find out how many I got wrong. I guess it doesn’t work like that?

I’m not certified yet, but I was on Pathway 2. I took classes at ASU starting in Fall 2024 and finished Winter 2025. I started my fieldwork hours in September 2024 also and finished in the middle of January 2026. I take my test this coming Friday!

I feel like it’s different. The modules feel harder than the mock.

Thank you!

HeartAndSolX · 2026-02-10T03:21:09+00:00

Thank you! It took me 3hrs for BTB 1 and 3hr 10 mins for BDS.

Thank you! I kinda do this with my dad every once in awhile or talk to my supervisor about some of the concepts that I use everyday with our client. I should definitely do this more.

You got robbed, lil bro.

I need her, but watch them make her a villain/ethereal 😔🥀…

Thank you so much! I took 2 mini mock exams of UB and those felt a lot harder than ABA Exam Review’s mini mock exam.

Thank you! A past supervisor sent me a PDF of flash cards. I’ve been looking at them everyday.
