Browse

Free

The default mode and the foundation of ExamCademy. Every question is here — no payment, no paywall on content. Read, answer, and check community discussions at your own pace.

  • Every question, every provider — 138,000+ questions across 50+ certifications, free to read with an account.
  • Community context — See discussion and reports from people who've taken the exam recently.
  • Flag what's wrong — If an answer's off or a question's outdated, report it. Moderators read every report.
  • No pressure — No timer, no scheduling. Flip through at whatever pace fits your day.

Learn Mode

Supporter

Pick how many new questions you want each day. Learn Mode brings back what you forget and spaces out what you know — so your study time goes where it matters most.

  • Set a daily pace — Pick how many new questions per day. Learn Mode tells you when you'll finish at that rate.
  • Adapts to you — Weak spots return often. Mastered ones fade into longer breaks.
  • One slip-up won't reset you — Miss a question you'd mastered? It comes back sooner, not from scratch.
  • Stay in the flow — Save, comment, and report problems without leaving the session.

Exam Mode

Supporter

A timed session that mirrors the real test. Pick how many questions and how long, hit start, and find out where you stand — with a per-topic breakdown of where to focus next.

  • Realistic time pressure — Set the question count and clock to match your target exam.
  • Topic-weighted selection — Questions follow the official exam blueprint, not random draw.
  • Per-topic results — See exactly which areas pulled your score down — not just a final percent.
  • Full review after — Re-read every question, with comments and explanations alongside.

Saved Questions

Supporter

Hit the star on any question — in Browse, Learn, or Exam Mode — and it lands in your Saved view for that exam. One focused list of everything you flagged as worth a second look.

  • One place for every star — Questions you star while browsing, in a Learn session, or during an Exam Mode review all land in the same Saved view.
  • Per-exam scoping — The Saved view is scoped to the exam you're studying — your saved AWS questions don't clutter your CompTIA list.
  • Built for re-review — Same answer mechanics as Browse, just narrowed to the questions you flagged as worth a second look.
  • Star anytime, free — Starring a question only needs a free account. The dedicated Saved view is the supporter-only part.
