CFI practice questions - frequently asked questions

Plain answers about how CFI Exam Prep works: the exam, the questions, pricing, the free trial, and what you actually get.

No - and you should be wary of any site claiming otherwise. Every question here is original, written to mirror the style, difficulty, and judgment the real CFI exam tests. Each one comes with a plain-language explanation of why the right answer is right and the others aren't.

The CFI exam spans 15 domains: Preparation and Interview Setting (8.6% of the exam); Legal Aspects (9.3% of the exam); False Confessions (4.3% of the exam); Interpretation of Behavior (10.7% of the exam); Accusations (5.7% of the exam); Showing Understanding/Rationalization/Themes (6.4% of the exam); Assumptive Question (4.3% of the exam); Enticement Question/Baiting Question (4.3% of the exam); Denials/Backing Out (8.6% of the exam); Statements (7.1% of the exam); Telephone Interview (5.0% of the exam); Fact Gathering/Cognitive Interviews (8.6% of the exam); Sexual Harassment Interviewing (5.7% of the exam); Behavioral Interviews (5.7% of the exam); Field Interviews (5.7% of the exam). Every practice question on this site is tagged to one of these domains.
