OMPT-A generation 3: one step below exam level
Generation 3 sits one rung under the exam-level OMPT-A set. The question count and the clock are the same, 52 in 120 minutes, but fewer items are built to punish a shaky method and the balance tilts back toward the middle chapters: functions, exponentials, the standard differentiation rules.
Generation 3 in full: 52 timed questions over the OMPT-A topic range, each with the answer and the steps that produce it. It draws more of its questions from functions, exponentials and differentiation than the lower generations do. Recommended solving order: 1 → 2 → 3 → 4.
Who generation 3 is for
Use it as the checkpoint before the dress rehearsal. People who reach for this one have usually finished their revision and would rather find a gap here than on generation 4, where a single missing rule can cost you ten minutes you do not have.
How to work through generation 3
Take it timed. Finishing with a few minutes spare is the signal that you are ready for generation 4. If you run over, note which chapter the last five questions came from before you retry, since on OMPT-A overruns almost always trace back to two topics rather than to general slowness.
Where generation 3 sits in the OMPT-A line
There are four OMPT-A generations, numbered 1 to 4, and each is an independent paper. Generation 3 is the second highest. Below it the questions get easier and the syllabus coverage gets wider; above it, the opposite.
- Generation 1Widest coverage, gentlest level
- Generation 2Broad coverage, moderate level
- Generation 3Near exam level, narrower coverage — you are here
- Generation 4Closest to real exam difficulty

What students say about OMPT-A Practice Test by Examify
“Honestly the mock was really close to what I saw in the real OMPT-A. Not every question obviously, but the style and timing felt very similar. The solutions helped me a lot esp with logs and functions.”
“I did gen 1 first and got a worse score than I expected lol. Then I checked all the mistakes and did gen 2 few days later. It was actually very useful because I knew what I had to work on before the real exam.”
OMPT-A practice test: frequently asked questions
How much does the OMPT-A practice test cost?
OMPT-A generation 3 is €39.99 including VAT. The price covers the whole 52-question set, the answer key and the worked solutions, all of it available for as long as your account is open.
Is there a OMPT-A exam PDF to download?
No, and not by accident. OMPT-A generation 3 runs in the browser inside your Exam.ify account so the 120 minutes are timed for you. A PDF cannot do that. Everything stays readable afterwards: questions, answers and solutions.
Is generation 3 of OMPT-A as hard as the real exam?
Close, but not equal to it. Generation 3 is a step below generation 4, which is the exam-calibrated OMPT-A paper. The algebra is pitched slightly lower and the wording is less compressed, which leaves you room to repair something before you sit the real thing.
What kind of questions are on the OMPT-A test?
Expect the OMPT-A mix: equations and systems to solve, function behaviour to read off, exponentials, logarithms and derivatives. Generation 3 asks for a few more steps per question than generations 1 and 2 do. The chapter list is on the OMPT-A syllabus page.
