Full mock tips (Pro & Sub)

Before you start

• Pick the correct level (Professional or Subprofessional).
• Use a quiet block matching the official test-proper length you are practicing for: 3h10m Professional / 2h40m Subprofessional (CSC Examinee’s Guide materials, retrieved 2026-08-13).
• Silence your phone. The real exam will not pause for notifications; neither should your mock.

During the attempt

1. Trust the server timer. When it ends, the attempt autosubmits. Client sleep or tab switching does not stop the deadline.
2. Flag and skip. Do not bleed ten minutes on one analogy. Return via the progress map.
3. Treat EDQ-style items as unscored practice for the real Examinee Descriptive Questionnaire (personal data block). They are labeled not scored in-product; after your first mock you may be able to skip repeating them.
4. Remember our subtest counts are editorial estimates. CSC publishes totals (150/145 test proper + 20 EDQ) but not an official per-subtest split. Do not memorize our template as “the CSC distribution.”

After you submit

• Review time analysis and weakest topics before closing the tab.
• Let Today’s plan absorb gaps on the next Manila day — do not immediately start a second full mock unless you have a specific stamina goal.
• Readiness Score updates from completed mocks (the M component). One mock unlocks the metric only when other gates (enough topic practice) are also met.

What we will not invent

• Official per-subtest weights or a CSC scoring formula
• Day-of ID lists, room maps, or calculator rules as current CSC law without your own confirmation
• A claim that mock % equals your future general rating
