Before you buy
What do I get?
Two full R02 practice exams of 100 questions each, two hours each: 72 standard questions with four options and 28 multiple response questions, spread across the nine learning outcomes following the numbers the CII’s 2026/27 syllabus gives. Every answer comes with an explanation, with the working shown for calculations. Each exam runs in our exam player (timer, question palette, mark for review) and ends with your score by learning outcome. Retake either exam as often as you like; access does not expire.
Is this the current R02 format?
It follows the format the CII describes in its R02 syllabus and its R02 examination guide for exams from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2027 (the syllabus published June 2026, the guide first published June 2026), read on 25 October 2026: 100 multiple-choice questions, 72 standard format and 28 multiple response, in two hours. Our multiple response questions are adapted to a single-answer player: you choose one option that names every correct statement, instead of selecting each correct option (see the next question).
How are the multiple response questions shown?
The CII’s examination guide says that in a multiple response question more than one option is correct and you must select all the correct options to gain the mark. Our player takes one answer per question, so each of our multiple response questions lists numbered statements and you choose the one option that names every correct statement and no other: you score only if you pick that option.
What is the R02 pass mark?
The CII’s R02 unit page states that the standard pass mark is 65%. The CII explains that, where necessary, it adjusts marks for the difficulty of each exam version so that the same standard applies. Compare your practice score with 65%, remembering that a practice score is not a prediction.
Are these real exam questions?
No. They are original questions written to the learning outcomes in the CII’s R02 syllabus. They are not CII specimen or exam questions, and the CII has not written or endorsed them. The CII’s own examination guide, on its R02 unit page, contains a specimen exam; use it too.
Which tax year do the questions use?
The tax year 2026/27, which the CII’s 2026/27 R02 syllabus says is examined. Where a question needs a tax figure it uses the 2026/27 figure from the CII’s own tax tables, and says so. Figures that change during the year, such as interest rates and compensation limits, are left out on purpose.
Will my score here predict my R02 result?
No. A practice score shows where you are strong and weak on our questions; it is not a forecast of your exam result.
