CBCS radio FAQ

Is CBCS Radio free?

Yes. CBCS Exam Prep Radio is free to listen to, with no sign-up. Press the power button and you join the broadcast straight away.

How does CBCS Radio work?

It is a 59-minute recorded study show that broadcasts continuously. Everyone tuned in hears the same moment, like real radio. Turn it off whenever you like; turning it back on joins the current broadcast.

How is this different from a study podcast?

It works like a study podcast that is always on. Instead of choosing an episode, you join the show in progress, and everyone on a station hears the same moment. There is no seek bar, speed control or download.

Who are the hosts?

Maya & Ben are AI-generated hosts. The show is independent study material from OpenExamPrep; check exam rules with the official exam sponsor and practice with our free questions.

Can I keep listening while I practice?

Yes. Open practice questions, study guides or flashcards on any page. The radio keeps playing, and the header has a power button to turn it off or back on.

How many questions are on the CBCS exam?

The current NHA CBCS exam has 125 total items: 100 scored items plus 25 unscored pretest items. Pretest items are mixed into the exam and are not identified, so you should treat every item as scored.

How long is the CBCS exam?

The CBCS exam time limit is 3 hours. With 125 total items, that gives about 86 seconds per item, so candidates should practice both accuracy and pacing.
