Can I see a sample set of questions? Is there a trial version?
Yes! Each exam type (ACEM Primary and Fellowship) includes a free trial. When you have some time, sign up for a free trial and you will have a set of questions to time. We want to show you the sample of the type of questions you get in the paid practice exams.

Are the questions repeated in practice exams?
No!
Each practice exam is balanced and has a unique set of handpicked questions covering the breadth and depth of the ACEM Curriculum.
The questions are in a randomised order. Not only questions, but the correct and wrong answers are randomised too. Such randomisation tests knowledge and enhances learning. In addition, a repeat attempt of the exam will be a slightly different experience.
