The ASQ CQE Study Guide
This book is primarily meant to aid those taking the ASQ Certified Quality Engineer (CQE) exam and is best used in conjunction with The Certified Quality Engineer Handbook. Section 1 provides 380 practice questions organized by the seven parts of the 2015 Body of Knowledge (BOK). Section 2 gives the reader 205 additional practice questions from each of the seven parts, in a randomized order.
For every question in both sections, detailed solutions are provided that explain why each answer is the correct one and also which section of the BOK the question corresponds to so that any further study needed can be focused on specific sections.
A secondary audience is those taking exams for ASQ certifications whose BOKs’ have some crossover with the CQE. Namely, the Certified Six Sigma Black Belt (CSSBB), Certified Six Sigma Green Belt (CSSGB), Certified Reliability Engineer (CRE), and Certified Quality Inspector (CQI). Using this guide in studying for any of these exams would be extremely useful, particularly for the statistics portions of the BOKs.
Unlike other resources on the market, all these questions and solutions were developed specifically to address the 2015 CQE Body of Knowledge and help those studying for it, including taking into account the proper depth of knowledge and required levels of cognition. None of this material has appeared in any previous resource or been shoehorned into fitting under the BOK’s topics.
Practice/sample test questions such as those in this study guide cannot be taken into ASQ certification exam rooms.

If I pass my exam it will get 5 stars
December 20, 2021
Edit: post test update- I passed my cert first time and this book helped a lot. It is by no means perfect, there are errors in one or two places.
The real value of this question bank is that it forces you to over study and it focuses on items that will be important on the test. If you see 3 or 4 questions on the same topic, then good chance you will see that topic on the test. This little book turned out to be one of my most heavily used study resources.
I think anyone who has taken this kind of standardized test knows that the most critical thing for getting a passing grade is get a feel for the type of questions asked on the test. The more practice questions you try the better off you will be in the long run. This study guide does that.
The guide is split into two main parts- one section with sample questions arranged by the BOK and a second section with 205 practice questions in random order. The answer sections are helpful and solutions are completed with enough detail for you to follow along and pinpoint your weaknesses.
This is an excellent little prep book that I would recommend to anyone studying for the CQE. I may change the rating later depending on how I do on the test.
