Start testHow these CPE practice tests match the real exam
The real Certified Professional Electrologist (CPE) Exam has 100 questions and a 150-minute time limit. Question types: Multiple choice with four options (A)–(D): direct questions and incomplete-sentence stems, Roman-numeral (I, II, III) combination items, and some items whose choices are line drawings (e.g., hair growth stages). Each practice test here uses the same question formats, so you get used to how CPE questions are asked before test day.
The tests draw on every CPE content area, weighted like the official outline:
- Anatomy and Physiology of Skin and Hair (about 20% of the exam)
- Infection Control (about 25% of the exam)
- Clinical Observations (about 32.5% of the exam)
- Electrical Operations (about 12.5% of the exam)
- Equipment and Supplies (about 5% of the exam)
- Professional, Ethical, & Legal Considerations (about 5% of the exam)
Use tutor mode to see the explanation after each answer, or timed mode to practise at real exam pace. Every answer comes with an explanation of why it is right and why the other options are wrong.
