Practice test FAQ

How long is the free 10-question check?

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 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 check 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 10-question check free?

Yes. You can start the check and see your score and weakest domain for free, with no signup or payment. Your score in each domain unlocks when you add your email.

Where does the practice content come from?

Every question is original and written to ASNT's published outline. Treat the results as a starting point for study.

How is the check scored?

Practice items are grouped by the published outline's domains, subject to available questions. The outline does not publish domain percentages, so the check uses equal or near-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 get your score, your weakest domain and what the UT Level 2 course holds for it. Add your email to see your score in each domain and get a free study plan.

How should I use the result to study?

Start with your weakest domain. The UT Level 2 course has lessons, explained practice questions and timed exams on it. Want to test your pace first? Take the free 25-question practice test.
