Notes for Use:

Hide the answers by selecting the Answer Key column and changing the font to white.
There are no questions from Chap. 3, and there may be some questions without page
references just ran out of time.
nd
Not all questions are directly from the BABOK. I used Weigers Software Requirements (2
Ed), my systems analysis textbooks and other resources on some of them.
Table is sorted by Chapter. If you want an extra challenge, sort table by Question and hide
the Chapter column (change font to white).
Avoid sorting by the Choices column to maintain the integrity of the selection order. I did not
use Words numbering option you know how Word decides to renumber things on its own. But to
be safe, dont include the Choices column in sorts.
Finally, hope these are helpful. Good luck!
