Detailed results and answer explanations after submission

This is a full-length Part 107 mock exam: 60 questions run under real conditions, with a 120-minute countdown, a 70 percent passing score, answers hidden until you submit, and every question flaggable so you can come back to it. It is the closest thing on this site to sitting at a testing center.

It is for the candidate who has already studied and now wants a verdict. If you are still guessing on cloud clearances, start with the free 20-question practice test and come back when the guessing stops. The mock exam is part of the Complete plan.

What a full-length mock exam teaches

Individual questions teach facts. A full-length sitting teaches three things a short quiz cannot.

Pacing. Sixty questions in 120 minutes is two minutes each. That sounds generous until a sectional chart question eats six. Your real enemy is one hard question consuming the budget of five easy ones.

Endurance. Accuracy tends to drop in the last third of a long test. You will not find your own drop-off in a five-minute drill.

Calibration. Answers stay hidden until submission, so you finish with a belief about how you did and then find out whether it was right. If you walk out of a mock exam certain you scored 85 and the report says 68, that gap is the thing to fix before you book.

How it mirrors exam conditions

Every design decision removes a crutch that makes practice feel easier than the real thing.

One thing it deliberately does not copy: the real test puts 65 items in front of you and the mock exam puts 60, so you get slightly more time per question here than you will get at the testing center. Treat your pacing here as the optimistic case.

Answer options are shuffled on every attempt, so you cannot stop reading the stem and start remembering that the answer was third. Within a single attempt the shuffle is fixed, so the paper does not reorder itself under you.

What topics it covers, and in what proportion

This is the part most competitors get wrong. The percentage bands in FAA-S-ACS-10B are obsolete. Since 29 September 2025 the FAA's testing provider has used a new blueprint, published in the PSI Applicant Information Bulletin, which weights the five knowledge areas of the Airman Certification Standards differently. The mock exam draws to that blueprint on every attempt.

Knowledge areaBlueprint shareQuestions per sitting
Regulations48%29
Operations25%15
Airspace20%12 (5 use a sectional chart panel)
Weather5%3 (2 use a coded METAR)
Loading and Performance2%1

Regulations and Operations together are 44 of your 60 questions. Loading and Performance is one question, worth 1.7 percent of your score. If you are spending evenings on center-of-gravity arithmetic while still shaky on airspace authorization, you are optimizing the wrong thing. Fractional shares round to whole questions, and Regulations absorbs the remainder: 48 percent of 60 is 28.8, so it draws 29.

A worked example

Here is the shape of question the Regulations block keeps asking.

You intend to operate a 45-pound unmanned aircraft at 300 feet AGL over an unoccupied construction site inside the Class D surface area of a towered airport, beginning at 9 p.m. local time. What is required?

The answer is prior ATC authorization for the airspace, plus anti-collision lighting visible for at least 3 statute miles.

The reasoning has two independent halves, and the exam is testing whether you keep them apart. Airspace comes from 14 CFR 107.41: no operation in Class B, C or D, or within the lateral boundaries of the surface area of Class E designated for an airport, without ATC authorization. Night comes from 14 CFR 107.29, which permits night flight provided the aircraft carries anti-collision lighting visible for 3 statute miles and the remote pilot in command completed a knowledge test or recurrent training after 6 April 2021.

The distractor to beat is "a waiver." An authorization is permission to enter airspace; a certificate of waiver under 14 CFR 107.200 is permission to deviate from a rule, and only the sections listed at 14 CFR 107.205 can be waived at all. Night operations have not required a waiver since the 2021 rule change. In the mock exam you will not learn you were right until you submit, so flag it and move on.

Common mistakes

Taking it cold. A mock exam is a measuring instrument, not a teaching one. Sitting one before you have worked the material produces a low number and nothing you could not have guessed.

Taking it repeatedly instead of studying. The score is a decision aid, not a prediction and never a promise. If you scored 62 percent, the useful next step is the Regulations questions you missed, not another sitting tomorrow.

Skipping the chart and METAR questions. They are 7 of 60, and they are what candidates most often leave blank under time pressure. They are also the most learnable, because the question types repeat.

Ignoring the clock. Finishing in 45 minutes with the timer irrelevant tells you nothing about how you will perform when it is not.

How it fits with the other tools

The mock exam measures. The other tools fix what it finds.

  • The full 1,261-question practice bank has an adaptive weak-area mode, plus by-domain, missed-questions and bookmarked modes. This is where a bad Regulations score gets repaired.
  • The sectional chart trainer covers those 5 chart questions with 20 annotated panels. They depict invented airspace and carry a "not for navigation" banner, because they are teaching tools.
  • The METAR trainer covers the other pair, using real-format coded reports rather than decoded summaries.

A reasonable rhythm is study, sit one mock exam, spend a week on whatever it exposed, sit another. From 27 October 2026 the knowledge test embeds chart images in the question instead of using a separate printed supplement; the October 2026 exam changes article covers what that does and does not change.

Frequently asked questions

What is a Part 107 mock exam?

A Part 107 mock exam is a full-length rehearsal of the FAA Unmanned Aircraft General knowledge test taken under the real constraints: 60 questions, a 120-minute countdown, 70 percent to pass, and no feedback until you submit. The Part 107 Ace mock exam also draws its questions to the current blueprint proportions.

Does this mock exam use the current exam blueprint?

Yes — the mock exam draws every attempt to the blueprint effective 29 September 2025: 29 Regulations, 15 Operations, 12 Airspace, 3 Weather and 1 Loading and Performance question. The percentage bands published in FAA-S-ACS-10B are obsolete, and question sets still built to them over-weight Weather and Loading against the current test.

How is the mock exam different from the free practice test?

The free practice test is 20 questions, needs no account, mixes all five knowledge areas and returns an instant topic-by-topic readiness breakdown. The mock exam is 60 questions in 120 minutes, with answers hidden until submission and questions drawn to the exact blueprint proportions. One diagnoses where you stand; the other rehearses the day itself.

What score should I get before booking the real test?

No mock exam score predicts a pass, and nobody honest will give you a threshold. Treat the result as a decision aid: a consistent margin above 70 percent across separate sittings, with no knowledge area collapsing, is better evidence of readiness than one good score. Weak areas matter more than the headline number.

Do the questions change between attempts?

Answer options are shuffled on every attempt, so a question you have seen before will not present its choices in the same order and you have to read the stem rather than recall a position. The shuffle is fixed within one attempt. Each sitting draws 60 questions to the blueprint proportions from the 1,261-question bank.
