Free UK Amateur Radio Foundation Mock Exam
Studying for your UK amateur radio Foundation licence? Try our FREE Foundation mock exam, provided by HamTrain, to see how your studies are progressing.
Just like the real Foundation exam, our online mock includes 26 multiple-choice questions, a 60-minute time limit and a pass mark of 19 out of 26.
It’s a useful way to check what you’ve learned, practise answering exam-style questions and identify topics that might need more revision.

Before you start: Find somewhere quiet where you won’t be interrupted. You’ll receive your results and explanations by email.
Please note: The free sample mock is limited to one attempt.
Should you study before taking a mock?
Yes. A mock exam is designed to check what you’ve learned, rather than teach you the syllabus from scratch. If you’re new to amateur radio, we’d recommend studying the Foundation syllabus first.
Our FREE HamTrain Foundation Online course covers the topics you’ll need for your exam, with study notes, videos, practice questions and tutor support.
