Official ASE Practice Test Program
Take ASE-styled tests without the high stakes of the real test
Why You Should Prepare with a Practice Test
The Official ASE Practice Tests are online quizzes, using ASE-style questions that allow you to judge your test readiness, increase your knowledge, and ease your anxiety over taking actual ASE certification tests. Like the ASE certification tests, the practice tests use quality questions of the same format and difficulty, Because of this similarity, you’re able to test your readiness prior to taking an actual ASE certification test.
The practice tests allow you to flag questions for review, navigate back and forth, and see explanations for each question — either right after answering it or when you’ve completed the test. A progress review page shows those questions you flagged or left unanswered, allowing you to return and try again later. You can also stop at any point, return later, enter the same code, and pick up where you left off.
Improving Your Performance
The practice tests provide a printable performance report and explanations for correct and incorrect answers, giving you the opportunity to improve your skills. By using the performance review at the conclusion of the practice test, you can determine which content areas require additional preparation before moving on to an actual ASE test.
The Practice Tests have about half as many questions as the actual ASE certification tests. It’s not about the number of questions you take. It’s about what strengths and weaknesses the questions identify after you take them.

ASE Testing Myths and Misunderstandings
ASE tests focus on knowledge of the skills required to do a certain task, not on theory. This makes ASE tests relevant to what's done on the job, not in some laboratory. ASE's Test Taking Tips provides an interactive look at the different types of ASE questions: www.ase.com/testingtips.
ASE lists the number of questions and allowed times for each of its tests in the Study Guides. To learn how to use the computer testing interface, including time-saving tips, review the YouTube video, “A Look at the ASE Testing Platform” at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=utfNePc5kOA
If English is your second language, you may bring a standard, published English-to-foreign language dictionary to use during testing. If you speak Spanish, every ASE test features a button on the testing interface that launches an English-Spanish Glossary of Technical Terms.
Relax. ASE offers its tests at nearly 500 secure, proctored centers across the country and has a wide availability of times for testing appointments. You can search for a test center and testing appointment before you register and pay for tests.
You may take all certification tests without having yet earned the necessary experience, but keep in mind, some L series tests have prerequisites.
Regardless of how long it's been since your certifications expired, you're eligible to take the recertification versions of those tests. Except for the Advanced-Level series Recertification tests to have about half the number of questions as the regular tests, so this can ease the burden of recouping the certification status you seek.
You don’t have to be a computer nerd to take an ASE Computer-Based Test (CBT). In fact, you don’t even need to know how to use a PC’s operating system. To see how easy it is, take a test drive of the system to help prepare and feel comfortable with the testing technology.
The best place to start is with a free ASE Study Guide. Select your test series to view study guide materials. The guides contain a detailed "roadmap" for each test, along with sample questions and information on training resources. Also be sure to check out the Official ASE Practice Test: ASEpractice.com
