Study for the VTNE

VTNE Study Materials

Online Practice Tests

Practice tests assess your strengths and weaknesses in each of the 10 domain areas of the VTNE. We offer two versions of the practice test. Here’s what you need to know:

Each practice test is $50 (paid in US dollars) per attempt.
Each practice test contains 75 questions and is 90 minutes long.
After you take a practice test, you’ll get feedback on your results, which you can use to help you prepare for the VTNE.
Performance on the practice test provides an indication of test readiness, but doesn’t guarantee a similar result on the VTNE.
