Practice test FAQ

How long is the free diagnostic?

The free check has 10 questions, is untimed and takes about 24 minutes. You see the answer and explanation after each question. It is a short study check, rather than a full-length exam simulation. Want exam pace? The 25-question timed practice test is also free. You can pause it, and it saves your place.

Does this NDT Level 2 practice test cover every method?

The current diagnostic covers Ultrasonic Testing (UT) General only, using the outline before the 5 February 2027 change. It does not cover other methods, Specific sector exams or employer practical and job-specific assessments.

Is the diagnostic free?

Yes. You can start the diagnostic and see your score and domain breakdown for free, with no signup or payment.

Where does the practice content come from?

These are original practice questions written to the published outline. We never use real or recalled exam items. Treat the results as a starting point for study.

How is the diagnostic scored?

Practice items are grouped by the published outline's domains, subject to available questions. The outline does not publish domain percentages, so the diagnostic uses equal domain weights; these are practice weights, not published exam weights. This practice percentage helps set study priorities; it does not predict your exam score or certification outcome.

What do I see after finishing?

You see your overall practice score, a domain breakdown and your weakest domain. Use those results alongside the published outline to choose topics to revisit.

How should I use the result to study?

Review the domains where you struggled, compare them with the published outline and return to your study references. A short diagnostic samples only part of the content; completing it does not establish exam readiness.
