What’s inside

  • Start Here — Prep Pack: a how-it-works lesson and the Exam Blueprint & Study Plan, plus both practice tests
  • Seven Objective Sprints: one lesson per domain, each with a 5-question Sprint Check
  • Seven Domain Readiness Checks: 10 questions each
  • Practice Quiz: 25 untimed questions drawn at random from the original bank
  • Full Practice Exam: 125 questions in 180 minutes, mirroring the published exam length and time

How to use it

Pick the 6-week or 10-week plan and take one Practice Quiz as a baseline. Study the domains in order, since each feeds the next: Sprint, Sprint Check, then Readiness Check. Finish with the Practical Checkpoint and a timed Full Practice Exam. Questions and answers shuffle on every attempt, retakes are unlimited, and every answer includes feedback and an explanation.

About your practice scores

Every quiz and check reports a percentage. Use it to decide what to study next, not to predict your exam result; it does not use the exam’s scoring scale. The 70% Practice Quiz pass mark is a course benchmark, not the exam standard. Aim for steady results across all seven domains, not one strong total.
