Realistic
3 full-length TMUA mock exams
Both papers, built question by question to the family mix, difficulty ramp, option counts and answer formats of a real sitting. Nothing softened. Sit each one end to end, timed, in the real interface.

Timing
Practice under real exam conditions
75 minutes a paper, enforced exactly as the real thing, and a pause that hides the screen so practice stays honest.

Scored on the real 1.0 to 9.0 scale
Paper-by-paper marks, accuracy and pace, and for a full mock an estimate of where you would land on the scale UAT-UK reports.

Paper 1 · Question 8Easy
The equation x2 + px + q = 0 has roots 22 and 32. What is p + q?

Correct answer · CYou answered
The roots are 4 and 9. Sum of roots = −p, so p = −(4 + 9) = −13. Product of roots = q, so q = 4 × 9 = 36. Then p + q = 23.
Why the others are wrong
A: that is p on its own. Stopped one step early.
D: that is q on its own, the product without the sum.
E: 13 + 36, with the sign on p dropped. The sum of the roots is −p, not p. (your answer)

Difficulty
Turn it up as you get better.
Every question is graded across four levels, so practice keeps pace with you, from finding your feet to well past anything the real exam will ask.
Easy
Find your feet. Learn the question shapes without the clock breathing down your neck.
Medium
Real-exam standard: the difficulty you'll actually meet on the day.
Hard
Stretch. The tougher end of the real paper, where marks are won and lost.
Insane
Deliberately harder than the real thing, so the real thing feels calm by comparison.
Medium is pinned to genuine real-exam difficulty. Practice there and you're practicing the actual paper.

It's very easy to navigate through and I love the fact that you can choose many options, for example, how many questions, timing (with extra time and without) and which format you want the questions to be given in.

What’s on the test
Built to match the real TMUA, section by section.
Two papers of 20 questions, 75 minutes each, sat on screen at a Pearson VUE centre with a whiteboard and no calculator. No penalty for wrong answers, and one score on the 1.0 to 9.0 scale.
Paper 1: Applications of Mathematical Knowledge
941practice questions
Multiple choice. AS-level pure maths and higher-tier GCSE put to work in shapes school never asked for: nine question families, from algebra and functions to graphs and transformations.
Paper 2: Mathematical Reasoning
450practice questions
Multiple choice. Logic and proof: necessary and sufficient, quantifiers and negation, counterexample, what follows from what, and spotting the error in a purported proof.
And as whole papers

Why "eerily accurate"
If it doesn’t look like the real TMUA, it doesn’t go in the bank.
We're borderline obsessive about accurate questions. Every question is written and reviewed against the current spec: same shape, same traps, same difficulty, same clock. Nothing softened to feel gentler than the real exam.
Reviewed against the current spec, not last year's
Timed to the exact real-exam clock, section by section
A full worked explanation written for every one

Adaptive
Adaptive practice, not random drills.
Sessions target where you’re weakest and back off where you’re strong. Twenty focused minutes goes further than an hour of scrolling past papers.

Common questions
Straight answers, no fluff.
Yes, in full. Paper 2 is half the exam and almost nobody meets it at school, so the bank carries every reasoning type the specification names: necessary and sufficient, quantifiers and negation, proof and counterexample, what follows from what, and error-spotting. Each comes with a worked solution that shows the logic, not just the letter.
Yes. Every sitting UAT-UK has published is free to download on the TMUA past-papers page, with the official worked answers and keys. They were all written for the paper exam that ended in 2024, and you only get to sit each one cold once, which is why the bank is built from original questions banded to the same difficulty scale. Practice here first, and keep the real papers for a readiness check.
Every question is timed, and once you have checked an answer you see how long it took you against the average for everyone else, and which wrong option caught people. Your analytics then track your median time per question against the 225 seconds a real paper allows, flag the questions that took too long and were still wrong, and show whether your pace is moving. It is the part of the TMUA that practice on paper cannot teach.
Yes. Every question is written and reviewed against the current TMUA spec: same shape, same difficulty, same time pressure. If a question stops looking like the real exam, it gets pulled.
Past papers are a great start, but there are only a handful of them and you'll finish them in a couple of weeks. They also come as PDFs: nothing times you, nothing marks you, and none of it looks like the Pearson VUE screen you will actually sit. GhostPrep gives you the breadth to keep practicing without repeating the same questions, under the real clock and in the real interface, for less than a single hour of private tutoring, month after month.
Most students who see real gains do 3–4 sessions a week for 4–8 weeks. Sessions are short and adaptive, so 20–30 minutes goes further than an hour of unstructured revision.
Any time, in one click from your account, with no retention calls and no hoops. On either plan, cancelling stops the next renewal and you keep access to the end of the period you have already paid for. There's a full refund if you ask within 14 days of buying, and your progress stays saved if you come back.
