Google Has Officially Launched Free, Full-length Practice Tests Within Gemini to Help Students
As of January 2026, Google is expanding its educational tools to help students prepare for high-stakes exams without the high cost of traditional prep courses.
What is Available Now?
Currently, the focus is on the SAT, but Google has confirmed that more exams are coming soon.
- SAT Practice Tests: You can take full-length mock exams directly within the Gemini app or web interface.
- Vetted Content: These tests are powered by materials from The Princeton Review, ensuring the questions are accurate and reflect the actual exam style.
- Instant Feedback: Unlike traditional paper tests, you get immediate scores and step-by-step explanations for every incorrect answer to help you learn from your mistakes.
What About JEE and NEET?
If you are looking for Indian competitive exams like IIT-JEE or NEET, here is the status:
- Coming Soon: Following the SAT launch, Google has indicated that support for JEE and NEET is a priority and may follow shortly.
- Current Alternatives: While direct “Google-official” JEE/NEET mocks are still in development, you can use the SATHEE platform (an initiative by the Ministry of Education and IIT Kanpur), which allows you to log in with your Google account to access free mock tests.
How to Use Gemini for Your Own Mock Tests
Even if your specific exam isn’t officially “launched” yet, you can use Gemini’s Personalized Exam Prep features today:
- Upload Your Material: You can upload your own PDFs, lecture notes, or textbooks to Gemini.
- Generate Quizzes: Ask Gemini: “Generate a 20-question practice quiz based on these notes” or “Test me on the laws of thermodynamics from this document.”
- Identify Gaps: Gemini can analyze your performance and tell you exactly which topics you need to study more.
How to Start Your First Mock Test
You don’t need to download a separate app or buy a subscription. To begin, simply open Gemini and type:
“I want to take a practice SAT test.”
Gemini will then open a dedicated testing interface that tracks your time and provides questions vetted by experts.
Student FAQs: Everything You Need to Know
1. Is it really 100% free? Yes. Google has made these full-length practice tests available at no cost to help make high-quality test prep accessible to everyone.
2. Are the questions just “made up” by AI? No. This is the biggest advantage. Google partnered with The Princeton Review to use “vetted” content. This means the questions follow the official exam patterns, difficulty levels, and timing—they aren’t just random AI-generated guesses.
3. Which exams can I practice for? Currently, the focus is on the SAT. However, Google has confirmed that more standardized tests (like the ACT, and potentially JEE/NEET for Indian students) are being added throughout 2026.
4. Can I get a score and feedback? Yes! As soon as you finish, you get:
- A Detailed Scorecard: See how you performed in each section (Math, Reading, etc.).
- Step-by-Step Explanations: For every wrong answer, Gemini explains why it was wrong and how to solve it correctly next time.
- Personalized Study Plan: Based on your results, it will tell you exactly which topics you need to study more.
5. Is there a timer? Yes, there is a “Timed Mode” that mimics the actual 2-hour and 14-minute SAT environment. You can also choose “Instant Feedback Mode” if you want to see the correct answer immediately after each question.
6. What if I am a student in India (CBSE/NCERT)? Google has also integrated Khan Academy directly into Gemini. This allows you to access practice exercises and videos specifically aligned with the NCERT/CBSE curriculum in 9 major Indian languages (including Hindi and “Hinglish”).
7. Can I save my progress? Yes. If you need to take a break, you can close the test and resume it from the same chat window later without losing your progress.
Pro-Tip for Students
If you are preparing for an exam that isn’t the SAT (like a school unit test), you can still use Gemini’s Deep Research mode. Upload your class notes or a PDF of your textbook, and ask:
“Based on these notes, create a 15-question mock test for me with a mix of multiple-choice and short-answer questions.”
