Sample WELL AP Readiness practice questions

These sample items mirror the domains in the timed WELL AP Readiness mock. Correct answers and explanations unlock inside the practice session.

  1. Sample 1

    A cleaning contractor plans to use aerosol disinfectant sprays daily in an occupied open office. What is the best WELL-aligned modification?

    • A. Switch to a stronger quaternary ammonium spray applied less often, keeping the aerosol method unchanged
    • B. Keep daily aerosol spraying but schedule it at noon, when outdoor-air ventilation rates are at their peak
    • C. Replace disinfection with fragrance-free air fresheners, since odour control is the main WELL cleaning goal
    • D. Use a risk-based cleaning protocol with lower-emitting products and targeted application methods
  2. Sample 2

    A hotel group wants annual third-party verification of its cleaning, emergency preparedness and air and water management policies across properties, without design changes or full certification. Which IWBI offering fits?

    • A. WELL Core Certification, the base-building certification pathway
    • B. WELL Precertification, based on design commitments and drawings
    • C. WELL Health-Safety Rating, an operations-focused annual rating
    • D. WELL Community, a certification for districts and neighborhoods
  3. Sample 3

    During design, the owner asks how WELL Materials defines 'transparency' for purchased building products. Which response is most accurate?

    • A. Providing manufacturer marketing claims of 'non-toxic' content on product data sheets
    • B. Providing Environmental Product Declarations that report embodied carbon and life-cycle impacts
    • C. Providing verified disclosure of product ingredients and hazards through recognized reporting tools
    • D. Providing Safety Data Sheets as the complete record of every ingredient in a product
  4. Sample 4

    A facility manager is developing a WELL Community emergency preparedness plan. What should be included first?

    • A. Documented procedures for evacuation, shelter-in-place, and occupant communication during emergencies
    • B. A list of emergency contact numbers posted at reception, with procedures to be written after occupancy
    • C. An evacuation map on each floor that covers fire exits but omits shelter-in-place and communications
    • D. A security-team protocol kept confidential so that occupants are not alarmed by drills or notices
  5. Sample 5

    A daylight simulation for a south-facing open office shows sDA300,50% met across 80% of the floor, but a deep perimeter band exceeds ASE1000,250 (over 1,000 lux of direct sun for more than 250 hours a year). What should the design team conclude?

    • A. The strong sDA result shows glare is controlled, so the design can proceed
    • B. Daylight is plentiful, but the perimeter needs exterior shading or glazing control
    • C. Modeling interior blinds as closed in the ASE run is the right way to fix the result
    • D. Switching to a single-point daylight factor check will remove the sunlight issue

What is the WELL AP Readiness exam?

WELL AP Readiness is an exam pathway administered under IWBI / GBCI (International WELL Building Institute). Official GBCI/IWBI WELL AP (verify candidate handbook): 115 MCQ (100 scored + 15 unscored), 2.5 hours, scaled pass 170 (125–200), closed book with embedded scenario + reference PDFs. Some third-party sites still cite outdated “100 questions / 2 hours / scale out of 300” — use IWBI sources. This UniPrep2Go check is a 50-question diagnostic, not a GBCI exam. This UniPrep2Go page is an independent timed practice test — not official exam material.
