There are many sites offering free ham radio practice exams. Here's why ours are the best:
- Remembers your study history. You can go back and review questions you missed on earlier practice exams, even weeks or months later!
- Integrated into question pool display. You can view the entire question pool, with each question color-coded to show whether you've seen it, and whether it gives you trouble.
- Always up-to-date. Be aware: some other sites are running out-of-date question pools!
- Ease of use. You’re going to be answering thousands of questions, so you want it to be quick and easy. The other sites make you maneuver the mouse to click inside a tiny circle. We let you click anywhere on the answer text, a much larger area.
- Immediate feedback. While not knowing your score until the end more closely simulates the actual exam, immediate feedback is critical to the learning process. You need to see the answer while the question is fresh in your mind.
- Resume exam already in progress. If you don't finish the exam one day, you can resume it in your next study session.
- Integrated into study mode. Our intelligent repetition algorithm treats answers on practice exams the same as study mode, which helps us to focus on your weak areas and make sure you learn everything.
- Our subscribers have access to advanced features, including focus exams, limiting exams to most-frequently-missed and most-frequently-asked questions, exams on selected topics, etc.
Of course, we'd rather you not use practice exams at all. While they are an effective way of memorizing the answers, you don't learn much. For example, they help you memorize the answer of 20 volts, but they don't teach you the formula to calculate the answer. We hope you'll take our online courses and learn something about ham radio.
However, if you're going to take practice exams, ours are the best!
