The official brochure identifies male and female Grade 12 students and graduates in the Sharia and Business Administration tracks. The test is in Arabic and the stated duration is 125 minutes. Check the university or receiving institution’s requirements before choosing a date.
Plan by subject
Set aside sessions for tawhid, hadith and fiqh, followed by Arabic grammar and spelling, literature and rhetoric. Schedule separate sessions for history, geography and social studies, principles of law and digital technology. This is a study arrangement, not official question weights. Use your school course materials alongside practice; one question collection cannot replace the courses.
Turn each mistake into a small task
After a set, record why you missed each item: missing knowledge, confusion between two terms, or hurried reading. Revisit the rule and explain why the other three choices fail. Try missed questions again a day later and after several more days, without first looking at the answer.
Keep the Arabic examples
For grammar, identify the governing word and the word being analysed before choosing a case marker. For spelling, examine the hamza and preceding vowel in context. For rhetoric, identify what the example means before naming its device. English helps explain the rule, but the analysis concerns the Arabic word or sentence shown.
Organise chronology and concepts
Use a timeline for history and distinguish causes from consequences. In geography, separate Earth’s movements from weather processes and read measurement units and scales carefully. In law, distinguish a rule’s category, source and scope. In technology, explain what a tool or component does rather than memorising only its name.
Move to timed practice
Start with short sets once you understand the foundations. Then attempt a longer session and note time spent by section. Your percentage correct is a revision indicator, not a Qiyas score or an admission guarantee. This practice distribution and question count are not assumed to reproduce the actual exam.
Before booking
Check the official service for available dates, fees, identification and attendance instructions. Do not rely on an old date circulating online. The brochure states five-year result validity and, for paper tests within Saudi Arabia, two attempts in Grade 12 and two in the first year after graduation. Digital tests and tests outside Saudi Arabia have separate provisions.
Finished reading? Try a set of questions
Start with 10 free questions to find your weakest units. Keep practising with the full question bank and mock exams from SAR 26.
