About this practice test

Part A of the CWI exam is closed book: 165 questions on screen in 135 minutes, 72% to pass. Each mock here is 50 questions in 41 minutes, about the same pace. 3 questions are free.

Independent practice material. Not written or endorsed by the American Welding Society. These are original questions, not AWS exam questions, and no code or standard text is reproduced. Format and rules are stated as we read them on AWS's pages in October 2026; AWS's own documents are the authority.

Before you buy

What do I get?

100 original questions in two mocks of 50. Each mock covers every one of the 11 Part A content areas at or above the minimum share AWS publishes. Start with the 3-question free sample, then sit each mock in the quiz player: a 41-minute clock, a question palette and mark for review, then your result with the explanation for every answer and your score by content area.

Is this the current Part A format?

Part A is a closed-book, computer-based test at Prometric test centers: AWS's Part A information guide (revision 03.01.2024) gives 165 questions, 150 of them scored, in 135 minutes, with 72% needed to pass. Our mocks are shorter, at about the same pace. Part B (practical) and Part C (code book) are separate exams and are not in this bank.

Who runs the CWI exam?

The CWI program was developed by the American Welding Society (AWS). Part A is delivered at a Prometric test center. This practice bank is independent of AWS.

How do I pay and get access?

One payment by card, handled by our payment provider. Outside India the price is charged in your own currency where we support it (US dollars in the United States); otherwise in Indian rupees, with the local figure shown as an estimate. Access opens on this device straight after payment. Sign in afterwards to keep it on your account. Purchase policy.

Disclaimer

Are these real AWS exam questions? No. Every question is original, written to the content areas AWS publishes for Part A. No code or standard text is reproduced here: standards are named, not quoted.
