Start here

Good, you're here. Let's get you set up.

OGExamPrep works differently from most prep platforms — there's no course to sit through and no account to create. You pick a subject, answer questions, and read why each option is right or wrong. That's it. Below is how to get the most out of that, how to keep it up day to day, and which exam you should actually start with.

How to practice effectively

Answering questions isn't the same as learning from them. A few habits make the difference:

1
Pick one subject or paper, not everything at once
Depth beats breadth this early. Working through one topic area at a time gives you a complete picture of it before you move on, instead of a shallow pass over everything.
2
Commit to an answer before you check it
Don't peek at the explanation first. Deciding on an answer, even when unsure, is what turns the exercise into a real test of your understanding.
3
Read every explanation — including for the ones you got right
The reasoning behind the wrong options is where most of the learning happens. Getting a question right for the wrong reason won't show up until it costs you on exam day.
4
Use "Review Missed" to close gaps immediately
Every subject and paper tracks the questions you got wrong, right in your browser. Clear that list after each session instead of letting it pile up for a review that never happens.
5
Save the timed mock exam for the final stretch
Once topic-level practice feels solid, take a full-length, timed mock exam to get used to the pacing and structure of the real thing — not as a substitute for practice, but as a rehearsal for test day.

Make it a daily habit

A short session every day beats a long one once a week. Twenty focused questions each morning, worked through properly — answered, checked, and understood — will take you further than a two-hour cram session that leaves nothing behind by the following week.

There's no login here to build a streak around, so the habit has to come from you. Attach it to something you already do daily — right after coffee, on the commute, before you open email — and let your own "Review Missed" list be the thing that tells you whether you showed up. If that list is shrinking, the habit is working.

Which exam should you practice?

If you already know why you're here, pick your track below and start. If you're weighing more than one, here's how to think about it.

CFA

CFA Program, Level 1

3306+ questions across all 10 subjects

Choose CFA if you're pursuing the Chartered Financial Analyst designation and need to pass Level 1 — ten topic areas from Ethics to Alternative Investments, tested through scenario-based, three-option questions. Start with Ethics and Quantitative Methods; they underpin everything else in the curriculum.

ACCA

All 15 papers

1504+ questions across Knowledge, Skills, and Professional papers

Choose ACCA if you're working through the ACCA qualification, from the Applied Knowledge papers up through Strategic Professional. Work through your papers in syllabus order, and drill each one with exam-style questions as soon as you finish studying it — don't wait until revision to test yourself.

GRE

Verbal + Quant

2002+ questions across every question type

Choose GRE if you're applying to graduate school and need to build both Verbal and Quantitative Reasoning skills. Split your time evenly between the two — it's tempting to over-practice the section that already feels comfortable, but both count equally toward your score.
