I am getting ready to take my Commercial written exam. Someday, I
would like to be a CFI. I have heard that the written tests for the
Commercial, Ground and Flight Instructor take the questions from the
EXACT same bank of questions. Is this true?

the questions that are not in that knowledge back are the "Theory of
Learning" questions..

To elaborate: AFAIK, the "Theory of Learning" stuff is on the separate
"fundamentals of instructing" test, required for ground and flight
instructor certificates, while the commercial and CFI use the same questions
for the aeronautical knowledge exam.

For the Commercial, you need to pass just one written. For the CFI, you
need to pass two more exams. One of those exams uses the same question bank
as is used for the Commercial, or almost the same.
