Looking for a free GAMSAT ® practice test you can sit online under realistic exam conditions? A practice test goes beyond individual sample questions — it simulates the ACER GAMSAT ® with full Section 1 and Section 3 MCQ volumes, timing options, and an exam-style interface so you can diagnose strengths, pacing, and platform familiarity before test day.
Our free GAMSAT ® practice test gives you 62 Section 1 and 75 Section 3 questions across a range of topics and difficulties, delivered on GradReady’s online exam platform designed to closely mimic the official ACER GAMSAT ®. You can sit it under real time pressure or at your own pace, then review worked solutions and percentile comparison against other GradReady students.

Watch the video below to see our online exam system in action — and how this free online GAMSAT ® practice test mirrors the official ACER platform.

A GAMSAT ® practice test is a structured, exam-style set of multiple-choice questions that mirrors the reasoning demands of the official ACER GAMSAT ®. GradReady’s online practice test challenges critical thinking, problem-solving, and the ability to apply what you have learned — across GAMSAT ® Section 1 (Reasoning in Humanities and Social Sciences) and Section 3 (Reasoning in Biological and Physical Sciences).
What sets this free online GAMSAT ® practice test apart is a user interface carefully designed to simulate the look and feel of the actual exam. Familiarising yourself with the platform ahead of time reduces stress on ACER test day and lets you focus on improving your GAMSAT ® score. See our guide on what the GAMSAT ® exam covers for the official format and structure.
If you enrol in a GAMSAT ® Preparation Course, you get access to up to 15 online exams with worked solutions, available in multiple modes so you can practise at your own pace or under real time pressure.
Otherwise, sign up to the GAMSAT ® Free Trial for a free practice test with 62 Section 1 MCQs and 75 Section 3 MCQs — matching official section lengths.
A GAMSAT ® practice exam is the fastest way to diagnose strengths and weaknesses before you invest weeks in unfocused study — especially if your goal is an Australian medical school.
The most efficient study approach is to spend the majority of time on areas that need improvement. After taking our free GAMSAT ® practice test, you can review a performance breakdown and identify strong and weak subtopics. The system also compares your score to 12,000+ other GradReady students so you know where you stand.
For target scores and cut-offs, read our guide to medical school admission requirements.
GAMSAT ® Mock Exams are included in our GAMSAT ® Attendance Courses. They are the closest simulation to the real sitting: timed conditions, a well-simulated environment, video solutions, personalised Section 2 essay feedback within a week, and an online recap day with our tuition team.
A GAMSAT ® practice test is an online Section 1 and Section 3 exam focused on high-value sub-topics, sat on our ACER-like platform. The free practice test in the Free Trial contains 62 Section 1 MCQs and 75 Section 3 MCQs.
Enrol in any GAMSAT ® Preparation Course for access to up to 15 practice exams, each with 62 Section 1 and 75 Section 3 MCQs — matching the official GAMSAT ® lengths.
Whether you start with the Free Trial or a Preparation Course, you use the same GradReady online exam platform that mimics the official ACER GAMSAT ®. You can sit exams in Mock Exam Mode or Custom Mode — explained in the section below.
There are no freely downloadable official GAMSAT ® past papers. ACER produces the only official preparation materials — e-book practice tests and online interactive practice tests for all sections — sold through an ACER account (you do not need to be registered for a sitting to purchase them). Practice Test A is included with GAMSAT ® registration; Practice Tests A and B are full-length Humanities and Biological & Physical Sciences papers (about 4 hours 10 minutes under exam conditions), with answers provided.
ACER’s online interactive practice tests run inside a replica of the test application with inbuilt timers (62 questions / 100 minutes for Humanities; 75 questions / 150 minutes for Biological & Physical Sciences). ACER also provides a platform demo for interface familiarisation; demo questions are from the Practice Questions publication and are not marked.
GradReady’s free GAMSAT ® practice test is a third-party exam simulation: ACER-like interface, full Section 1 and Section 3 volumes, worked solutions, and performance analytics. Use official ACER materials for authenticity, and use additional free online practice tests — like this one — for volume, timing practice, and platform familiarity. For short sample items with explanations before sitting a full test, use our free GAMSAT ® practice questions.
When you begin the exam, an introduction page gives instructions that closely match the official GAMSAT ®. The Section 1 and Section 3 interface also closely mimics the official ACER GAMSAT ® platform, so you can familiarise yourself with online delivery before test day and better prepare for the GAMSAT ®.
Watch the video above to see the online exam system in action and how this free GAMSAT ® practice test mirrors the official exam.
You can choose between the Mock Exam Mode and the Custom Exam Mode. The Mock Exam Mode will simulate the full GAMSAT ® exam experience in which you have to complete the exam within one sitting with the associated time pressures and the appropriate spacing between sections.
The Custom Exam Mode gives you various options to complete the exam at your own pace.
You can select the No Timer option which allows you to complete the exam in different settings. For example, you can complete Section 1 in one day and finish the remainder of the exam another day.
Selecting the Apply Time Limit to the Entire Exam option allows you to customise the length for each section of the exam. For example, you can choose to give yourself extra time to complete the exam compared to the official GAMSAT ® section timings.
Thirdly, you can choose to Apply Time Limit to Individual Questions. This is useful if you're trying to develop a good pace per question.
Some other useful features of the Custom Mode include the ability to select a specific section of the exam to complete as well as the option to skip reading time. These features are not available in Mock Exam Mode.

For GAMSAT ® Section 1 and Section 3, you will have access to the correct answers with the accompanying worked solutions. If you are enrolled in one of our GAMSAT ® Preparation Courses, you will also have access to relevant supplementary content and features on our website such as videos and textbook sections for each MCQ. You will not have access to these with a Free Trial account, but we also offer lots of Free GAMSAT ® Preparation Materials, such as our GAMSAT ® study syllabus and a GAMSAT ® essay guide, so be sure to check them out.
You will be able to review your percentiles in comparison to all other students who have completed the practice exam. You will also be able to review a breakdown of your performance and determine various points of strength and weakness. Compare your GAMSAT ® score to 12,000+ other GradReady students and get a better idea of where you stand!
For more information about what your GAMSAT ® score means, check out our comprehensive guide on GAMSAT ® results.
The Free GAMSAT ® Practice Test contains 62 Reasoning in Humanities and Social Sciences MCQs.
These questions require complex logical reasoning, and verbal processing to arrive at the answers. You’ll see a wide range of stimuli including cartoons, poems and longer texts, each of which is associated with 2 or more 4-option multiple-choice questions.
Visit our guide on how to prepare for GAMSAT ® Section 1 to improve your score.
Section 2 (Written Communication) is not included in our Free GAMSAT ® Practice Test. Section 2 is included in the 5 mock exams which are available to students who enrol in our GAMSAT ® Preparation Courses. You will receive two sets of essay prompts and will be able to write your responses.
If you'd like your essay to be reviewed and marked, we have a GAMSAT ® essay marking service where our expert tutors will provide personal feedback for your essays within 72 working hours.
The Free GAMSAT ® Practice Test contains 75 Reasoning in Biological and Physical Sciences MCQs.
These questions focus mainly on your ability to analyse, interpret and generalise based on scientific data, equations and concepts. You will be provided with a wide range of stimuli including graphs, formulas, diagrams and text, again associated with MCQs.
Visit our guide on how to prepare for GAMSAT ® Section 3 to improve your score.
Once you decide to sit the ACER GAMSAT ®, the breadth of Section 1 and Section 3 topics can make it hard to know where to start.
A GAMSAT ® practice test gives you that direction. Under exam-style conditions you learn which question types you miss, how time pressure changes accuracy, and which subtopics deserve more study — so remaining GAMSAT ® preparation is targeted.
For example, you might struggle with poetry stems in Section 1, or find Physics reasoning weaker than Biology. The free online practice test feeds GradReady’s intelligent MCQ system, which tracks performance across 43 subtopics so strengths and weaknesses are visible after one sitting.
Practice tests also train your relationship with timing. Many candidates struggle with pace on ACER test day; timed and custom modes let you measure how long a set takes and how pressure affects accuracy before you dial in skip/guess strategies.
Once you’ve learned your way around this GAMSAT ® practice test platform, navigating ACER’s interface on exam day is far less unfamiliar — especially alongside the official demo and interactive practice tests described above.
Start with ACER’s official practice materials for authenticity — they contain genuine GAMSAT ®-style questions and, for the interactive online tests, a replica of the test application. Registration includes Practice Test A; additional ACER e-books and online practice tests can be purchased through an ACER account.
Official volume alone is rarely enough. Extra timed practice tests improve pacing, stamina, and confidence under exam conditions. GradReady’s free GAMSAT ® practice test complements ACER materials with an ACER-like interface, Mock Exam and Custom timing modes, worked solutions, and percentile comparison — so you can sit more full Section 1 and Section 3 papers before test day.
Remember how long you have on average for each MCQ! After all, each MCQ is worth the same on the day of the GAMSAT ®, but not all Qs are built the same. Knowing when to skip and come back later is a crucial skill to test out.
Skim Qs before reading the stimulus if you feel this will help. This enables you to see to what detail you need to read the passage or data at hand, and can make for more efficient appraisal of the stimuli.
Eliminate answer options! You can always rule out some options. Our podcast episode on Using Educated Guessing in the GAMSAT ® Exam discusses this in great detail, so be sure to check it out!
Stay calm! You’ve got this. You have built up tons of knowledge over the years. At the moment of any test your job is to apply it, and worry about what you can improve after the test.
Lastly, do what’s right for you. If you have strategies that work for MCQs, then implement them.
All in all, it's important to know what type of skills the GAMSAT ® actually wants to test. Visit our guide on What is the GAMSAT ® to learn all you need to know about this challenging exam.
Your practice test score is a scaled version of your raw marks (how many Section 1 and Section 3 questions you answered correctly). That scaling approach mirrors how ACER reports section scores for the official GAMSAT ® — so treat the result as a diagnostic signal, not a guaranteed sitting score.
See our article on GAMSAT ® scores for how section scores, overall scores, and percentiles work on the real exam.
The GAMSAT ® is a difficult, gruelling exam. It tests a wide variety of skills and is high stakes in nature given what it provides students down the line, which is a pathway to becoming a doctor. However, it is manageable!
Importantly, study and practice does improve scores on the GAMSAT ®. According to ACER, the GAMSAT ® exam tests critical thinking skills and your ability to analyse materials - all of which you learn and acquire either through education via schools or universities, self-study or studying through us! However, to know whether you are improving, practice tests are your best bet, and our GAMSAT ® Free Practice Test ensures you have a base level to quantify your progress.
There is no pass mark or rate for the GAMSAT ® exam. Medical schools in Australia usually want you to get over 50 on each of the 3 sections of the exam. And they then may rank you against other students using your overall score or your score on individual sections.
