Archicad Practice Test

The Archicad Practice Test is a free intermediate-level, 20-minute skill test from Science of Apps. Practice for Archicad BIM skills — the project environment and navigation, modelling with walls, slabs, roofs and objects, the virtual building and stories, documentation with views, sections and layouts, and attributes, teamwork, IFC and BIM collaboration — written to the Graphisoft Archicad help and buildingSMART IFC standards for 2026. Score 70% or more on its 20 questions to earn a verifiable ArchiCAD Readiness certificate (SOA-M3E). Every question is based on published standards and research — including Archicad help (Graphisoft), Industry Foundation Classes (IFC) (buildingSMART International), UK BIM Framework guidance (UK BIM Framework) — and each answer is explained with its source.

Yes. Science of Apps has a free Archicad Practice Test built on the current Graphisoft exam outline for 2026 and 2027. It covers environment and navigation, modelling elements, documentation and attributes, teamwork and IFC, scores you instantly and issues a verifiable certificate.

Read the four skill areas on this page, then take the 20-minute test online — no fee, course or sign-up. You see every answer explained when you finish. Score 70% or more and you get a ArchiCAD Readiness certificate straight away, on screen, as a PDF and by email, with a credential ID anyone can verify.

Yes. The questions are original scenarios written by Science of Apps, and each one is based on a public source you can read: Archicad help (Graphisoft); Industry Foundation Classes (IFC) (buildingSMART International); UK BIM Framework guidance (UK BIM Framework). The source is shown under each question and linked in the answer review. Science of Apps doesn't copy questions from other tests.

Four skill areas with five questions each, drawn from a bank of 10 per area so a retake brings new questions: Environment and Navigation (Interface, Navigator and Project); Modelling Elements (Walls, Slabs and Objects); Documentation (Views, Sections and Schedules); Attributes, Teamwork and IFC (Attributes, Teamwork and Interoperability). Every question is an original scenario written to the 2026–2027 standard, with the published source named under it.

Architect or architectural technician, BIM modeller or coordinator, Interior or building designer, CAD/BIM technician and Architecture student. It suits anyone who wants a quick, verifiable way to show Archicad knowledge in 2026 and 2027, from students and career switchers to experienced professionals.

Archicad is a BIM (Building Information Modeling) application from Graphisoft. Architects model a virtual building from intelligent elements like walls, slabs and roofs, and generate coordinated drawings, schedules and IFC data from that single model.

Building Information Modeling (BIM) is designing with a data-rich 3D model of a building rather than separate drawings. Changes to the model update all views, and the model carries information used across design, construction and operation.

No. It is an independent practice test written to the publicly available Archicad content outline for 2026 and 2027, for checking your readiness before you book the real exam. Passing earns a Science of Apps certificate rather than the official credential.

Yes. The test is online, in English and free everywhere — people take it from India, the US, the UK, Europe, Africa, Latin America and Asia-Pacific. Your certificate is dated with your own local date and can be verified from anywhere at scienceofapps.com/certification/verify/.

20 questions — 5 from each of 4 skill areas — with a 20-minute limit. You need 70% (14 of 20) to pass and 90% for distinction.

We rate it Intermediate: assumes hands-on experience in the role. It has 20 scenario questions — 5 from each of 4 skill areas — and a 20-minute limit. You need 70% (14 of 20) to pass and 90% for distinction.

Nothing. There is no fee to take a test, to receive the certificate, to have it emailed or to verify it, and no sign-up.

On our server, not in your browser. The answers never reach the page until you submit, so a certificate can only be earned by passing. Each certificate gets a unique credential ID stored by Science of Apps.

You see your score for each area and every question with the correct answer and why, with the published source behind it. You can retake after 30 minutes, and the retake draws questions you haven't seen yet.

No. Every certificate is dated, so it always shows when you passed. Retake a test any time for a newer date or a higher score.

Yes. After you pass, Add to LinkedIn opens the Licenses & certifications form with the certificate name, Science of Apps as the issuer, the issue date, your credential ID and the verification link filled in. You can also download it as a PDF or PNG, and it's emailed to you as a PDF.

Every certificate has a credential ID and a QR code. Scanning it, or entering the ID at scienceofapps.com/certification/verify/, shows the holder's name, the certification, the score and the issue date from our records.

No. They are Science of Apps' own assessments of applied skill. They aren't issued by a university or standards body, and they work best alongside a portfolio that shows the skills in real work.
