N3 mock exams
Sit the test before the test. Each mock exam follows the official section order and time limits, and reports a per-section score plus an estimated scaled result.
Two ways to take a mock exam
- Full mode: all sections back to back with the real clock, for an honest picture of stamina and timing.
- Section mode: one section at a time, for focused practice on reading or listening.
Taking a mock exam and saving the result requires a free account. Your result appears in your exam history with a per-skill breakdown.

Before you start
Getting the most from a mock exam
One sitting
Take it at the same time of day as the real test, with no dictionary and no pausing.
Review everything
Afterwards, review every wrong answer and every lucky guess: the explanation links back to the lesson to revise.
Watch each section
Compare section scores with the 19-point sectional minimum, not only the total; a weak section fails the exam on its own.
Budget your time
Read the time management guide before your first attempt and adjust your budget after it.
