Full mock exam

180 questions · two sessions

Each session is 90 questions and 135 minutes. You can change an answer until you submit that session. The score, topic scores, and explanations appear only after both sessions are submitted. Each finished mock is saved so you can review it later.

How this mock compares with the real exam

The Level I exam has 180 three-option multiple-choice questions in two sessions of 135 minutes, and this mock keeps that length and timing. Topic counts sit at the midpoint of the topic weight ranges CFA Institute publishes for the 2027 exam, scaled so the paper is exactly 180. They are not a question-by-question blueprint of the real exam. Mock questions come from the same question bank you practice with, so questions you have already seen may appear.

How close is it to the real exam?

It keeps the length, the timing and the three-option format, and its topic counts follow the midpoints of the 2027 topic weights. The questions are written by us; they are not CFA Institute questions.

Is each mock a new set of questions?

Each mock is a new paper drawn from the same bank you practice with, so questions you have already answered may appear.

Can I review a finished mock?

Yes. Every finished mock is saved to your account with its score and topic scores, and the explanations your account can see.
