Frequently Asked Questions

For the best experience, we recommend replicating the conditions you expect during the actual IBCLC Certification Exam. Find a quiet space where you won’t be disturbed and remove any visual aids, such as posters or sticky notes. The goal of this mock exam is to test yourself under real-world conditions to gauge your strengths and identify areas that need attention. We suggest starting with our IBCLC Exam Prep Super Pack before taking the mock exam to build confidence and address potential knowledge gaps.

You will immediately gain access to our student dashboard, where you can review guidance and instructions for taking the mock practice exam. Please allow up to 2 business days for us to set up your access to the testing platform. Once activated, you can take the exam anytime.

If you need to step away during the mock exam, simply save and exit the exam environment. When you're ready to resume, you can pick up where you left off and continue the timer just as you did when you first started.

Once the exam has started, it cannot be restarted or reset. However, if you started the exam by accident and lost significant time, please contact us, and we’ll assist with resetting your exam.

No, the mock practice exam is designed to test your current understanding of the subject matter. Re-exposure to the same questions may affect the accuracy of your results; therefore, only one attempt is allowed.

You’ll immediately receive your results, including a detailed breakdown across the 7 IBCLC Detailed Content Outline categories. This allows you to identify your strengths and pinpoint areas that may need further attention.

The IBCLC Detailed Content Outline (DCO) serves as the blueprint for the IBCLC Certification Exam. Each category is weighted to reflect the knowledge and understanding required for certification. Familiarity with the DCO helps you focus your study efforts on the areas that matter most. You can find a copy of the DCO here.

You will only receive detailed examination results upon completion. Similar to the actual IBCLC exam, correct and incorrect answers will not be displayed.
