Commercial mock tests barely exist for these papers, which matters less than it sounds. The best practice material is the code itself and the past papers.

Practice
Build your own tests. Take twenty questions from past sessions, sit them to time with only what you would be permitted to carry, and mark honestly. Repeat with a different set. For a rules-based paper this is closer to the real examination than any generic test could be, and it costs nothing but the time.
In a with-books paper the marks go to whoever can find a provision inside a minute. Practise that specifically: take ten questions from a past session, start a clock, and find each answer in the code, recording how long each took. The provisions that were slow to locate are the ones to tab — and after two or three rounds of this the tabs stop being needed at all.
| What to measure | Target behaviour | What a poor result means |
|---|---|---|
| Seconds to locate a provision | Found from the tab, without reading the contents page. | The index is incomplete or the tabs are labelled in language you do not think in. |
| Questions answered without opening the book | Rising over weeks, as the frequent provisions become familiar. | You are relying entirely on lookup, which will not finish the paper. |
| Wrong answers where the provision was found | Close to zero. | The provision is being located but misread. Practise reading the whole provision, including its exceptions. |
| Questions left at the end | None. | A pacing problem. Set a per-question limit and move on when it is reached. |
| Performance on procedure questions | Steady, because procedure repeats. | The department manual has been read for content rather than for sequence. |
Practise in the physical conditions of the paper. If the examination is computer-based and the permitted book is a paper copy, the real skill is switching between screen and book without losing your place — which is awkward the first time and unremarkable the tenth. A candidate who has only ever practised with a paper question set has not rehearsed the thing that actually slows them down.
