  1. Diagnostic — a free 9-question Quick Diagnostic across Texas's outline, or the full 20-question version on a paid plan; we map your strengths and gaps per topic.
  2. Daily drills — adaptive sets that target your weakest topics and taper difficulty as mastery grows.
  3. Exam simulations — timed, mirroring Texas's section sizes and pass marks; no feedback until you finish, just like test day.
  4. Readiness prediction — an honest estimate of your chance of passing every section, updated with every answer.

TradePass is not affiliated with PSI, Prometric, NFPA, any exam vendor, or any state licensing board. Practice questions are original content, written to reflect Texas's published exam outline. We do not reproduce NEC text (article citations only) and we do not guarantee exam results. Readiness is a prediction/estimate, not a promise.
