Understanding the DOMC item type
The entire Okta Certified Administrator test is composed of DOMC items. DOMC is a powerful measurement instrument that produces consistent test results. It does this by eliminating “contaminants” from test results that are not related to the information or abilities being assessed. The DOMC item type adjusts the playing fields and accurately assesses your capabilities by improving:
Readability
Fairness
Security
Exam Scoring
All DOMC items are scored fairly and accurately. However,
First, if you choose the correct choice and answer YES, then your response is deemed correct. A DOMC item can be coded so that it requires one or more correct responses to be completed and regarded as appropriately responded to.
Second, if the correct option is selected and you respond NO, the item will be marked as incorrect.
If you answer YES to the question, and choose the wrong choice, the item will be removed
