About the PDE practice exams

These 14 practice exams prepare you for the GCP Professional Data Engineer (PDE) 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 PDE exam domain, so the Ingesting and processing the data domain (26%) gets the most questions, as it does on the real exam.
