Question 1 of 60

Scenario · Customer Support Resolution Agent

By turn nine of a multi-issue session your agent tells the customer "I'll get that recent refund moving" instead of naming the $247.83 refund for order #8891 placed on 3 March. Your pipeline condenses every turn older than four into a running summary. What change would most effectively address this?

Getting value out of these

Read every explanation, including on the questions you answered correctly. The exam is a judgement test: the distractors are all things a working engineer has actually tried, and the reason each one fails is the material. A right answer picked for the wrong reason will not survive a differently worded question.

When you get one wrong, the useful question is not what the right answer was but whether you reached for a workaround over a mechanism — a bigger context window instead of less context, an instruction in the prompt instead of a constraint in the orchestration layer. That pattern repeats across the whole exam, and noticing it is worth more than memorising any single item.

These are untimed on purpose. Pace is a separate skill and belongs in the timed mock exam, where 60 items in 120 minutes gives you roughly two minutes each on questions that take real reading.
