What this test covers
One concept per question, across the topics Professional Machine Learning Engineer draws on.
- Fine-tuning changes systematic behaviour that prompting cannot reliably achieve
- Batch prediction suits large offline scoring jobs where per-record latency is irrelevant
- Metric choice must reflect the cost of each error type on imbalanced data
- Gradual degradation with unchanged code points to drift
- Training–serving skew arises when the same feature is computed two different ways
- Missing knowledge is fixed by retrieval, not by tuning or prompting
These questions are written by GCP Prep to test understanding of publicly documented concepts. They are not real exam questions and are not a prediction of what any exam contains.
