Written Test Simulations and Evaluations

The EPSO Written Exam is one of the main components of the EPSO selection process. EU Training offers a unique opportunity for EPSO candidates to get familiar with this test here on the platform with a variety of written test simulations. You can also choose to request an evaluation. The practice tests available here, that have a competition name in their title, are related to the field of the competition, but if you get an evaluation, just like on the real EPSO exam, you will only be assessed for one competency - Written Communication Skills.

For further information, please check our Terms of Use, Privacy Policy or feel free to contact us anytime.

How many times can I use a question? And how many times can I revise a test?

Our questions have no expiration date, your question balance has no expiration date. You can compose new tests as long as you have new questions on your account, and you can revise previous tests without any time limitation.

We created a system that helps your EU exam preparation in the best possible way:

After you buy an exam preparation package, you can use these questions to create new tests in any composition and language you wish.
Once you launch a new test, the number of questions that you put in there will be deducted from your account and you can use each question once, similarly to a test book where you mark your answer options.
However, as a special gift to our customers, we created a system where you can re-take any of your previously composed tests as many times as you like (you can do this by finding the test you wish to re-take via the Practice Activity block of your Dashboard).
You can monitor your progress via the Statistics block as well.
After submitting or re-taking a test, you can revise all your previous tests in Review mode which includes an option to turn off the 'Explanation' feature to further improve the revision experience.
Moreover, revision is not limited in any way. You may revise previous tests and questions for an unlimited period and for an unlimited number of times.

Is there more than one language available for practice questions?

Definitely - yes! There are many languages now available in EU Training's comprehensive EPSO tests practice questions database.

How do I buy test questions in the language I want to practice in?

When buying question packages, you are buying a quota of questions from our database and not specific questions. This means that in the Start New Test block you can choose which language(s) you want to do your practice tests in. You do not pick this up at the time of purchase.

TIP: make sure you click on the little (i) in the table on the Products tab to see how many questions we have in a particular language per test so you don’t over-purchase.

Do the practice test questions I've purchased have an expiration date?

Absolutely not. All your purchased questions will remain in your EU Training Dashboard with no expiration whatsoever. You can start a new test as long as you have questions left in your balance (see the MY QUESTIONS block on your Dashboard), or you can Redo/Review your old tests under the Practice Activity block.

Start practicing! You can purchase EPSO-styel practice test questions here.
