Timed Test

To simulate the real NYLE, our practice test is a two-hour timed test. A timer will appear at the top of your test when you begin. Once two hours have passed, your responses are automatically submitted if you have not finished the test by then.

Real Simulation — No Back Button

To simulate the real New York Law Exam, you will not be able to go back to a question once you have submitted your answer for that question. So before you proceed to the next question, make sure that you are sure of your answer.

Answer Explanations

After you submit your exam responses, you will see answer explanations for all questions that you got right and wrong. We recommend that you read through the answer explanations for questions you got right to double check that you got them right for the correct reason. And of course, to read the explanations to the questions you got wrong to find out why you got the answer wrong.

Additional Support

We’ll be here to help you if you need more help with an answer explanation, practice question, or practice test. You can ask us directly at your NYLE home page after you create an account.
