About the PCA practice exams

These 14 practice exams prepare you for the GCP Professional Cloud Architect (PCA) certification. Each one is a full-length, timed mock test of 50 questions in 120 minutes, so the set gives you 700 questions in all, and no question repeats from one exam to the next. Questions are drawn to match the weight of each PCA exam domain, so the Designing and planning a cloud solution architecture domain (24%) gets the most questions, as it does on the real exam.
