1. You have an application using a 100 GB MySQL database that you are migrating into AWS. What should you consider when deciding between whether to host the database on RDS for MySQL or Aurora?

2. Sometimes you will need to match properties of one object to another using the Match Properties (MATCHPROP) command. When matching the properties of an existing viewport to a new one, which setting do you turn off in Match Properties to ensure that the viewport scale is not matched across to the new viewport?

3. When plotting multiple layouts, you can use the Batch Plotting (PUBLISH) command. What type of file can be saved to retain the batch plotting settings?

4. In order for object snap tracking to function effectively, what other drafting setting must be switched on?

5. When working with annotative text styles and dimension styles in model space, what two values must match for the annotative annotation to display in the corresponding viewports in the layout tab?

6. When using the ELLIPSE command with the Axis, End, and Center methods, how many axes are needed to form an ellipse?

7. When using the Multiple Points (POINT) command, which specific AutoCAD setting should you change from the default setting?

8. Splines use the NURBS algorithm in AutoCAD. What does NURBS stand for?

9. When using annotative scaling with dimensions and an annotative dimension style, which two variables need to match for the dimensioning to display in a scaled viewport?

10. A crossing selection selects what objects?

11. When an inserted block is selected, a single grip is displayed on the block, as shown in the image below. What is this point known as when the block is created with the Create Block (BLOCK) command?

12. When drawing line objects in a drawing, you may use coordinates to define distance and direction. One type of coordinate is a relative coordinate, which is relative to the last point specified—often the second point when drawing a line using the LINE command. What prefix symbol should you type in front of 2D X,Y coordinates to ensure that AutoCAD knows it is a relative coordinate input?

13. What specific annotation setting must be in place in order to place a text annotation in a drawing?

14. Center Mark (CENTERMARK), a new annotation tool for circles and arcs, provides an associative center mark that can be edited easily and remains associative to its geometry. Which AutoCAD system variable controls the extension line overshoots that go past the circumference of the circle or arc?

15. When using the Polyline (PLINE) command to draw an arrowhead, what polyline properties do you need to use?

16. System variables can be monitored in AutoCAD. When monitored, they can also be reset to preferred values. What command is used to control these system variables?

17. Linetype Scale (LTSCALE) is applied to what sort of linetypes in AutoCAD drawings?

18. You can dimension objects in AutoCAD from the Annotation panel on the Home tab of the ribbon. Where else can you dimension on the ribbon?

19. Multileaders are defined with a multileader style, which can have text (MTEXT), a block, or nothing added to the multileader line coming from the arrowhead. When using the block option for multileader content, default blocks are available with attributes for easy annotation; a user block can also be defined. Where does AutoCAD first look for the user blocks that can be used with multileaders?

20. To insert a table in a drawing, you use the TABLE command. What is a prerequisite to control a table's appearance before inserting a table into a drawing?

21. You can share tool palettes with other AutoCAD users, provided that the palette source drawing location does not change. What file do you need to share to ensure that another user is using the same tool palette?

22. AutoCAD uses coordinates as the basis of all drawings. The coordinate system is always displayed in the bottom-left corner of the Model tab. In a regular 2D drawing, what axis notation is used for the horizontal and vertical coordinates?

23. To create clean, professional plots of your drawings, which object should be set to not plot in the Layer Properties Manager palette?

24. When using the MOVE or COPY command, what is the first point that you must select?

25. There is often a need to hide or isolate selected objects, especially in complex drawings when detailing geometry. Where would you find the Isolate menu option which is not on the ribbon?
