TechTest Jr
Teachers, register your teams by Jan. 31, 2025. Teams will receive testing date notifications via email.
Use these practice tests to get ready for the exam. Each test has two versions: one without answers for self-practice and one with detailed solutions to help with problem-solving.
The 2018-2024 tests have solutions similar to the 2025 format, but remember, no questions are repeated from past tests. These are just to help you get used to the question style and format.
