Sample Questions
Question
1
Which of the following best describes leader competencies?
Explanation:
Leading others, developing people, and achieving results are the traits that define effective leadership. This set reflects how a leader guides the team, helps individuals grow and perform, and drives the group toward concrete outcomes. It emphasizes influence and development in addition to delivering success, which is what true leadership is about. In contrast, options that focus on planning, organizing, and controlling lean more toward traditional management functions that organize how work is done rather than how people are guided and developed. A mix that includes audits centers on inspection and compliance rather than cultivating capability. And ones that list basic tasks like reading, writing, or reporting describe routine duties, not the people-centered capabilities that lead to sustained results.
Question
2
What is the science of control?
Explanation:
The science of control is about the systems and procedures that provide the commander with timely, accurate information and the means to direct forces to accomplish missions. In practice, this is command and control: integrating people, processes, and communications so the commander can observe the situation, decide on a course of action, and direct actions across units. This goes beyond just planning battles or maintaining equipment. Planning deals with what to do, but the science of control focuses on how information flows, how decisions are made, and how actions are coordinated to synchronize efforts and adapt to changing conditions. It includes the networks, decision cycles, standard operating procedures, and command relationships that keep everyone aligned toward mission goals.
Question
3
What section of the 2166-8 will information on SHARP be annotated?
Explanation:
SHARP information reflects behavior and adherence to Army Values, so it belongs in the Character portion. On the 2166-8, that is Part IV, block c. This block is designated for personal attributes and conduct, which is the right place for SHARP-related notes. The other sections cover administrative data or performance tasks, not ethical conduct, so SHARP details wouldn’t go there.
Question
4
What is preparing?
Explanation:
Preparing is the activities units and Soldiers perform to improve their ability to execute an operation. This includes training, rehearsals, equipment checks, recon, logistics coordination, and other readiness actions that set the conditions for a successful mission. It is forward-looking work done to build capability before and during execution. It is not about continuously determining progress toward a task (that describes monitoring progress), nor about directly executing operations (that is the act of execution), nor about evaluating enemy capabilities only (that falls under intelligence and assessments).
Question
5
When can commanders or Soldiers deviate from lawful orders?
Explanation:
The main idea is obedience with accountability. Soldiers must follow lawful orders, but there are strict limits: you may deviate only if the order is unlawful, would needlessly risk Soldiers’ lives, or no longer fits the situation on the ground. In those cases, you don’t blindly execute; you seek clarification or change through the proper chain of command and pursue an action that achieves the mission safely and lawfully. Simply disagreeing with a superior, or acting on personal preferences or in peacetime conditions, does not justify deviation from a lawful order.
