Simulate the exam before it counts

On exam day the problem is rarely knowledge; it is the situation: time pressure, unfamiliar wording, one chance per question. The app's exam simulation recreates exactly that, timed, weighted for your canton, with topic-specific tests as well. One practice test per day is free; Premium removes the limit.

Why simulation beats revision

Browsing questions, you recognise answers; in the exam, you must recall them. Those are different skills. The simulation forces recall under time, which is precisely how you find the topics you merely recognise rather than know. And whoever has passed several simulations knows the pace, which is what keeps you calm in the real room.

Mid-test: the clock is running, and every answer gets its explanation.

The learning starts after the test

After every simulation you see which questions went wrong, each with its explanation. The loop that works: sit the test in one go, read every wrong answer with its explanation the same day, then drill the weak topics over the following days. The statistics show whether the gaps are closing.

How to use the exam simulation properly

  1. Check your canton. Make sure your target canton is selected; the simulation takes over the cantonal weighting.

  2. Sit it in one go. Start the timed test and answer everything without interruption, like on exam day.

  3. Read every wrong answer. Go through each miss with its explanation the same day.

  4. Drill the weak spots. Practise the weak topics over the following days, then repeat the simulation.

Quick answers

Is the simulation built like my real exam?
It is timed and cantonally weighted like your canton's exam. The exact format and question count of the real test are set by your canton; the simulation trains recall under time, which counts everywhere.
How many simulations are free?
One practice test per day is included free. Premium lifts the limit, so you can test several times a day in the final weeks.
