What Makes This Mock Test Different
Let me be honest with you. There are many websites claiming to offer NOUN practice questions, but most of them either charge money after the first few questions or give you outdated materials that don't match the current exam format.
This page is different. Everything here is completely free. No hidden charges, no "premium" versions, no signup fees. Just straightforward practice questions covering all the courses offered at NOUN.
We've organized the mock tests by faculty and department, making it easy for you to find exactly what you need. Whether you're in your first year or final year, whether you're studying sciences or arts, you'll find relevant practice materials here.

Our mock test system covers all major NOUN courses across different faculties. Here are some of the most popular courses our students practice with:
Faculty of Education courses including Educational Psychology (EDU 312), Curriculum and Instruction (EDU 406), Philosophy of Education (EDU 112), Introduction to Teaching Profession (EDU 111), and Measurement and Evaluation (EDU 402).

Business Administration courses like Introduction to Business (BUS 101), Principles of Management (BUS 201), Business Finance (BUS 302), Entrepreneurship Development (BUS 411), Marketing Management (BUS 304), and Human Resource Management (BUS 407).

How Our Free NOUN Mock Test Works
Using this mock test system is straightforward. You don't need any special technical skills or computer knowledge. Though we have already provided this guide above, but there is need to re-emphasize.
Step 1: Select Your Course. Use the dropdown menu or search bar to find your course. You can search by course code (like EDU 312) or course title (like Educational Psychology).
Step 2: Choose Your Test Mode. We offer two modes. Practice Mode lets you see answers immediately after each question, which is great for learning. Exam Mode simulates the actual NOUN CBT exam - you answer all questions first, then see your results at the end.
Step 3: Start Your Test. Click the "Start Test" button and the timer begins. The interface looks exactly like the real NOUN CBT system, so you get familiar with the layout, buttons, and navigation.
Step 4: Answer the Questions. Take your time reading each question carefully. You can flag difficult questions and come back to them later, just like in the actual exam.
Step 5: Submit and Review. When you finish or when time runs out, you'll see your score immediately. You can review all questions, see which ones you got wrong, and understand the correct answers with explanations.
Step 6: Retake as Many Times as You Want. There's no limit. Practice the same test multiple times until you can score consistently high. Each time you retake, questions may appear in different order to keep you sharp.
Why NOUN Students Love This Mock Test
The feedback we get from students tells us this mock test system works. Here's what makes it effective:
It feels exactly like the real exam. We've designed the interface to match NOUN's actual CBT system. When you sit for your real exam, everything will feel familiar - the buttons, the timer, the layout. No surprises, no confusion.
Questions match current exam patterns. We don't just throw random questions at you. Our team studies actual NOUN exam patterns and creates questions that reflect what you'll actually face. The difficulty level, question style, and topic coverage all match real exams.
Instant feedback helps you learn. In Practice Mode, you see the correct answer immediately. This instant feedback helps your brain remember better than studying from textbooks alone.
You can track your progress. The system remembers your previous scores (if you allow cookies). You can see yourself improving from 50% to 60% to 75%. That visible progress is motivating.
It's accessible anywhere. Whether you're using your phone, tablet, or computer, the mock test works smoothly. Study at home, at the office, in your study center, or even while commuting.
No registration required for basic use. Jump right in and start practicing. We don't force you to create accounts, verify emails, or share personal information just to access practice questions.
Tips for Using This Mock Test Effectively
Having free access to mock tests is great, but you need to use them wisely to get maximum benefit.
Start practicing early. Don't wait until three days before your exam. Begin practicing at least two to three weeks in advance. This gives you time to identify weak areas and actually study them properly.
Use Practice Mode first. When you're just starting with a course, use Practice Mode. Learn from the immediate feedback. Understand why certain answers are correct before moving to Exam Mode.
Switch to Exam Mode later. Once you're comfortable with the material, switch to Exam Mode. This simulates the real pressure of timed exams and helps build your mental stamina.
Don't just memorize answers. Some students make this mistake. They keep retaking the same test until they memorize which option is correct without understanding why. That doesn't help in the real exam where questions are worded differently.
Review wrong answers carefully. Spend time understanding questions you got wrong. Read the explanations provided. If something still confuses you, check your course material or ask your coursemates.
Take breaks between tests. Your brain needs time to process information. Don't do five mock tests back-to-back. Space them out over days. Take a test, review it, study weak areas, then take another test.
Simulate real exam conditions. Find a quiet place when practicing in Exam Mode. Put your phone away. Set the timer. Treat it seriously. This mental conditioning prepares you for the actual exam environment.
Practice with different courses. If you're writing multiple exams in one semester, don't just focus on one course. Rotate between your courses so you're preparing for all of them simultaneously.
Use your mock test scores as study guides. If you consistently score low on questions about a particular topic, that's telling you something. Go back and study that topic more thoroughly.
Understanding NOUN CBT Exam Format
Knowing what to expect in the actual exam helps you prepare better. NOUN CBT exams typically follow certain patterns.
Most exams have between 50 to 100 questions depending on the course and level. Multiple choice questions dominate, usually with four or five options per question.
Time limits vary by course but generally range from 1.5 to 2 hours. The system shows a countdown timer at the top of your screen throughout the exam.
Questions appear one at a time on your screen in most cases, though some exams show multiple questions per page. You can navigate back and forth between questions using "Previous" and "Next" buttons.
There's usually a question navigator panel showing all question numbers. Questions you've answered appear in one color, unanswered questions in another, and flagged questions in a third color.
The system automatically submits your exam when time expires, even if you haven't answered all questions. This is why time management practice is so important.
You cannot go back and change answers after submission. Once you click that final "Submit" button, it's done.
Common Mistakes Students Make During CBT Exams
Learning from others' mistakes helps you avoid making the same ones. Here are common issues students face during NOUN CBT exams:
Spending too much time on difficult questions. Some students get stuck on one hard question and waste 15 minutes trying to figure it out. Meanwhile, there are easier questions ahead they never get to answer. Learn to flag difficult questions and move on.
Not reading questions carefully. In the rush to finish, students often misread questions. They see "which is NOT true" but read it as "which is true" and select the wrong answer even though they know the material.
Clicking the wrong button. The interface has several buttons - Next, Previous, Submit, Flag. In panic mode, students sometimes click Submit when they meant to click Next. Practice with this mock test prevents such mistakes.
Poor time management. Spending 30 minutes on the first 10 questions and then rushing through the remaining 40 questions in 30 minutes is a recipe for failure.
Not using the flag feature. When you're unsure about an answer, flag it and move on. Come back to flagged questions if you have time at the end. Many students forget this feature exists.
Forgetting to answer all questions. Some students skip questions planning to return to them but forget. Always check the question navigator before submitting to ensure you've attempted everything.
Second-guessing correct answers. Students often change their first answer to something else during review and end up getting it wrong. Trust your initial instinct unless you're certain it's wrong.
How This Mock Test Improves Your Actual Exam Performance
There's science behind why practice tests work so well. When you repeatedly practice with mock tests, several things happen in your brain.
Retrieval practice strengthens memory. Every time you try to recall information to answer a question, you strengthen the neural pathways associated with that information. This makes it easier to recall during the real exam.
You develop pattern recognition. After doing multiple mock tests, you start recognizing question patterns. You can anticipate what examiners are looking for and structure your thinking accordingly.
Anxiety decreases with familiarity. The more you practice in a simulated exam environment, the less scary the real exam becomes. Your stress levels drop, and you can think more clearly.
You build automatic responses. Some questions become so familiar through practice that answering them becomes almost automatic. This saves mental energy for more challenging questions.
Time management becomes instinctive. After practicing with timed tests repeatedly, you develop an internal clock. You instinctively know when to move on from a question.

Final Thoughts
Preparing for NOUN exams doesn't have to be stressful or expensive. With this free mock test system, you have everything you need to practice thoroughly and build confidence.
The key is consistency. Don't just practice once or twice and think you're ready. Make it a regular habit. Practice a little bit every day rather than cramming everything the night before your exam.
Remember that mock tests are tools to help you identify what you need to study. They're not replacements for actually studying your course materials. Use them together - study your materials, then test yourself with mock exams, then go back and study the areas where you struggled.
Thousands of NOUN students have used these practice questions to prepare for their exams. Many have reported significant score improvements after consistent practice. You can be one of them.
Start practicing now. Select your course from the menu above and begin your first mock test. The more you practice today, the more confident you'll feel when sitting for your actual exam. Good luck with your studies!
