What’s in an AAVSB VTNE practice test?
Each one has 75 questions and runs 90 minutes. The real VTNE has 170 questions. You get feedback on your results across the exam’s 10 domain areas, so you can see where to study. The AAVSB says it offers three versions, and PSI’s store lists Forms A to D.
It’s $50 in US dollars for each attempt, and PSI’s store may show the price in Canadian dollars. The AAVSB also offers group pricing on bulk orders. The questions are copyrighted, and the AAVSB says they aren’t to be copied, recorded or memorized for removal.
Free VTNE practice from the AAVSB
The AAVSB lists 10 sample questions as a free resource, one for each domain, with an answer key. It changes them from time to time. They’re there to show the type of question you’ll see.
NAVLE Self-Assessments from ICVA
Each NAVLE Self-Assessment has 200 multiple-choice questions in four blocks of 50, on the same platform as the real exam. You choose between two timing modes:
| Mode | Per section | Total |
|---|---|---|
| Standard-paced | 55 minutes | 220 minutes |
| Self-paced | 110 minutes | 440 minutes |
ICVA says standard-paced gives the most useful feedback, in one sitting. The regular format costs $50 and gives a report with a projected NAVLE score range. Expanded Feedback costs $65 and adds a review of the questions you got wrong. Both come in English or French, and you have 30 days to finish once you start. ICVA is clear that a good result doesn’t guarantee a pass.
