Exam practice
Drill both papers before you sit the timed mocks. Every run draws a fresh set from the full banks, reshuffles the option order, marks each answer as you give it, and explains why the strongest option wins, so a sitting teaches as well as tests.
Practice runs entirely in your browser. Nothing is sent to your account, no clock runs, and you can retry as often as you like. The two papers reward different revision, so work them separately. Foundation rewards precise recall: which layer owns a responsibility, which identifier changes at a router boundary, which documents are published rather than still drafts, and which observatory measured a number on which date. Practitioner rewards judgement: naming the layer in doubt, the identifier in play and the check that would settle it, then acting inside what that check can prove.
Foundation practice
Foundation format: 40 single-answer questions drawn from a bank of 160 or more, weighted across the 4 course stages.
Closed book in the real sitting, and the pass line is 24 of 40, so practise recalling the document numbers and the dates rather than looking them up.
Practitioner practice
Practitioner format: 8 workplace scenarios whose four courses of action score five, three, one or zero, to 40 points.
The judgement is choosing the strongest action, not spotting the only right one, so read all four options before you commit.
How the draws adapt
- 1Each sitting records how you scored in every sampling band, in your browser only.
- 2The next draw gives more weight to your lowest-scoring bands and avoids the questions you have just seen.
- 3The result names the bands to work on, so between sittings you know which stage to revisit.
Where your practice says you stand
Accuracy per sampling band, held in this browser and never sent anywhere. A band shows a score once you have answered in it; the two weakest bands are the ones the next draw over-weights.
When you are ready for the mocks
Move on when your practice runs clear the 60 per cent pass line consistently, with time to spare and no single band dragging. The real Foundation sitting allows 60 minutes for 40 questions and the real Practitioner sitting 90 minutes for 8 scenarios, so time an untimed run against those budgets before you commit to a recorded one. If a band keeps costing you marks, the revision guide points back at the stage summary that covers it.
