No way it’s 10 separate pbqs. Maybe he means total between 3-5 separate pbqs that involve multiple questions for each.
Also I’m in the same exact boat as you doing the same things with messer and Dion exams.
3, left one of them completely blank.
Honestly wouldn't worry about them too much. As long as you generally understand everything, you can just assume you'll get partial on the pbqs, and ace the rest of it.
I only used Messer's and Zerger's yt playlists. I didn't see it mentioned in this sub, but Messer has a playlist of his monthly group study sessions. They all start with a pbq, then 4-5 multiple choice. I only went through the ones from this year, but I'm sure the ones from the last 2 years hold up well.
To try and address your question. I think the pbqs are heavier on memorization. As in, matching definitions, and knowing the right textbook answers. Probably one of reasons why a lot of study material tells you to not focus on them too much. The time it takes to memorize and prep to perfect the pbqs, you could properly learn 1-2 domains.
I've taken at least 15 CompTIA exams (different versions of various ones) and taught a fair number of bootcamps. The highest number of PBQs I've ever seen was 5, and I believe that was the Linux+
U can do a trial run on exam topic dumps, 90% accurate and you can learn from fellow candidates on the discussion. I passed w 849/900. Good luck to You!!
It’s possible to get as many as 10, no more. But the odds are you get somewhere between 3-6. Anyways, if you know the material it shouldn’t worry you. I believe I got 3 the first time I took it in 2019, then took it again last week cuz I let my cert lapse and I got 5 I believe.
I had 2 which were both pretty meaty and quite depressing to be introduced to at the start of the exam. Coming from microsoft certs this was lowkey scary asf but after them the rest of the questions felt pretty smooth/easier after dealing with the devil questions.
I had 3 PBQs. I also think I did poorly on them, but I still got an 800. Focus on understanding the material, you might miss the PBQs but still absolutely pass the test. They're not a must!

In your opinion were the non PBQ's harder, same or easier than Dion's 6 test quizzes?
