Looking for CAD Exam Prep Tips and Scenario Advice

Hi everyone,

I’m currently preparing for the ServiceNow CAD exam and have been exploring different study resources such as the developer docs, learning modules, and hands-on practice in my personal instance. Recently, I’ve started focusing more on real-scenario questions to strengthen my understanding of application design, data modeling, and best practices.

One scenario I’ve been practicing:
If you are building a custom application that needs to manage multiple related records with strict security controls, what’s the best approach to ensure proper data separation and performance? Should you use multiple related tables, create a scoped application with custom ACLs, or rely on platform encryption and delegation?

If anyone who has already cleared the CAD exam or has experience designing custom applications can share insights, it would be really helpful. Any practical advice or best practices would support my preparation journey.

Thank you!
