Your company has three main offices named Main1, Main2, and Main3.
The network contains an Active Directory domain named contoso.com.
Each office contains a help desk group.
You plan to deploy Microsoft System Center 2012 Configuration Manager to meet the
following requirements:
The members of the Domain Admins group must be able to manage all of the Configuration
Manager settings.
The help desk groups must be able to manage only the client computers in their respective
office by using Configuration Manager.
You need to recommend a Configuration Manager infrastructure to meet the requirements.
Which infrastructure should you recommend?
A.
More than one answer choice may achieve the goal. Select the BEST answer.
B.
Three sites that contain one collection for each office
C.
One site that contains one collection
D.
Three sites that each contain one collection
E.
One site that contains a collection for each office
Seriously? It’s B here, probably A on the exam. Or not.
With some many of these unclear answers I’m getting nervous about my exam next week!!
I don’t think B makes sense, D sounds better but I don’t have these products on my environment and neither all the training I did can answer these so I’m relaying on these answers….anyone can justify the above ?
I’d go with D because it appears additional sites are required only when you have a lot of clients or have bandwidth restrictions and the questions says the offices are all main offices ie. geographically close.
You create a collection containing the relevant computers in each office then use role based administration to assign each offices help desk group permissions.

So it would be E then? One site with three offices
@ Strange
E seems the right choice for me also

When possible, plan to only install a stand-alone primary site for your hierarchy
Introduction to Collections in Configuration Manager
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-gb/library/gg682177.aspx
Collections specify the user and computer resources that an administrative user can view or manage.
As they said, there is more than one correct answer, but BEST PRACTICE would be to create only one Site with 3 collections to delegate the permissions and scope of permissions.
Its quite clear.

Role-based administration provides a central administrative security model for the hierarchy, and you do not have to install sites to provide a security boundary. Instead, use security scopes, security roles, and collections to define what administrative users can see and manage in the hierarchy.
For me, one collection is enough for all office Configuration Manager.
One site that contains a collection for each office
