What is a mock exam?
A timed, full-length simulation that holds feedback until the end, then shows your score, pass/fail result, and a breakdown by objective.
Can I customize how I study?
Yes. Pick the study mode that fits — adaptive practice, hard mode, ready-for-review, objective coverage, or retrying questions you've missed — and set your own question count, timer, and passing score for each session.
