What Practice Test Geeks adds beyond an AI chat for PenTest+

An AI chatbot can quiz you, but it can't reproduce the exam conditions or keep your record. Here you get:

A timed, full-length PenTest+ mock exam — 90 questions in 165 minutes with a 83% pass mark, modeled on the official exam's question count and time limit, followed by a score report broken down by exam domain.
A fixed PenTest+ question bank: the same test every attempt, so your score is comparable from one try to the next instead of changing with every regenerated quiz.
Progress saved on your device: completed tests, scores and missed questions stay in My Progress, so you can retake only what you got wrong.
A printable PenTest+ cheat sheet you can print or save as a PDF.
Free PenTest+ practice tests with the correct answer shown after each question.
