Frequently Asked Questions

 Frequently Asked Questions

  1. Q: How many questions are on the real BST exam?
     A: The official BC Basic Security Training (BST) exam consists of 100 multiple‑choice questions.

  2. Q: How much time will I have to complete the official exam?
     A: You’ll have 120 minutes (2 hours) for the real BST exam.

  3. Q: Are these practice questions the same ones I’ll see on the official exam?
     A: No. Our questions are modeled on the real‑exam format and content areas but are not the exact questions used by the licensing authority.

  4. Q: Can I review my answers and see explanations after I finish a quiz?
     A: Yes—after completing any quiz, mock test, or exam simulation, tap Review to see which answers you got right or wrong and read detailed explanations.

  5. Q: Do I need an internet connection to use this app?
     A: Yes. Each time you start a quiz, mock test, or exam simulation, the app fetches the latest questions from our database, so you need an active connection.

  6. Q: Can I flag questions to come back to them later?
     A: Not yet—flagging and bookmarking are planned for version 2.

  7. Q: Is my quiz history or progress stored on a server?
     A: No. All your scores and answers stay locally on your device. We do not transmit or share any personal data.

  8. Q: What happens if the timer runs out during an exam simulation?
     A: The simulation auto submits when the countdown reaches zero and shows your final score.

  9. Q: Can I pause or save a simulation in progress?
     A: Currently no. Once you start a full‑length simulation, you must finish in one sitting.

  10. Q: How do I retake a quiz or mock test?
     A: Simply return to the Home screen and select the same category or mock button again—questions will reshuffle each time.

  11. Q: Will new questions be added over time?
     A: Yes—we plan to update and expand the question bank periodically, so check back for fresh content.

  1. Q: Does the app cover all BST exam topics?
     A: We cover the eight core modules: Intro to Security, Legal Issues, Documentation, Communication, Emergency Response, Use of Force, Ethics, and Scenarios—plus mock tests and full simulations.

  2. Q: How are explanations written?
     A: Each question includes a concise, plain‑language explanation referencing relevant laws or best‑practice guidelines.

  3. Q: Is there a way to practice offline?
     A: Not in this Version. Offline support is on the roadmap for a future release.

  4. Q: How can I reset all my progress and start fresh?
     A: Go to your device’s Settings → Apps → BC BST Exam Practice Test and clear the app’s data to wipe all local scores.
