Teachers' Professional License – Subject Test: Science 2

The Science 2 test has 88 multiple-choice questions with four options and lasts 120 minutes (two hours). Calculators are not allowed and the test is in Arabic. Our mock exams use the same number of questions and time.

Yes. Free questions: a 10-question diagnostic test covering the main units, no sign-up; at the end we compare your score with the license levels 50 (Practitioner), 70 (Advanced) and 80 (Expert), tell you how many questions you are short of the next level, and show your weakest units. The free practice test page lists the same questions with answers and an explanation for every option. The rest of the questions and the full mock exams come with a pass from SAR 26.

Question bank: full mock exams of 88 questions in 120 minutes, like the real test with a result for every unit, plus 465 explained questions across 7 units, every option explained, a review of your mistakes, and two ways to practise: see the answer right away, or sit a full timed mock. Every question is reviewed and referenced, ready to practise on your phone. Try the free questions and read the explanations before buying full access.

The minimum for a license is 50 (Practitioner Teacher), then 70 for Advanced Teacher and 80 or above for Expert Teacher, under the Professional License Regulations (Article 4). The level uses the lower of your General Educational and subject-specific scores, together with your qualification and years of experience. Scoring is criterion-referenced and wrong answers carry no penalty.

31 standards in seven domains, according to the candidate guide: Chemistry 25%, Physics 25%, Biology 20%, Earth Science and Astronomy 10%, Science Teaching 8%, History, Nature and Integration of Science 7%, and Experimentation, Mathematical Skills and Data Representation 5%. Chemistry and physics together are half of the test.

Science 1 is for primary-school science teachers and Science 2 for intermediate-school science teachers, according to the Ministry of Education's guide to specialisations for teaching posts (2025). Each is a separate test with its own guide and standards: Science 2 has 31 standards and chemistry and physics make up half the test, while Science 1 has 26 standards, chemistry and physics together at 38.5%, and more weight on earth science, astronomy and science teaching. This site has a page for each: "Teacher License – Science 1" and "Teacher License – Science 2".

The first 1448 AH sitting of the subject test ran from 18 to 31 October 2026, and the next one is expected in late January 2027. Keep an eye on ETEC's page so you can register when it opens.

Calculators are not allowed in the subject tests. Chemistry and physics problems are solved on paper, and the ETEC guide's example on the mass of NaOH in 50.0 mL of a 1.5 M solution takes three steps: moles, then molar mass, then mass. Practise multiplying, dividing and working with powers of ten without a calculator from day one.

No. The Teachers' Professional License needs two tests: the subject-specific test in your own field and the General Educational Test, which is the same for every subject. Each costs SAR 100, and the level uses the lower of the two scores, so a high score in one does not lift your level above your score in the other.

No. Scores on this site are for practice only and are not an official result. This site is independent and is not affiliated with ETEC, Qiyas or any government body. They do show where you'd stand if the test were today: the full mock exam has the real question count and time, and your score is split by part of the exam so you can see where you lose points.

A subject-test result stays valid for five years from the date it is announced. The license itself is valid for five years, and you can apply to renew it in its final year, under the Professional License Regulations.

It is an independent site, not part of Qiyas or any government body, and every question is reviewed before it is published. You pay once, with no automatic renewal, through Waffo Pancake (the merchant of record) by Visa, Mastercard, Apple Pay or Google Pay, and your statement shows "WAFFO".
