The first stage of the Level 1 Architectural Construction Management Engineer examination requires answering 60 out of 72 questions, with a total of 36 or more correct answers. Furthermore, a passing score requires at least 6 out of 10 questions on construction management methods (applied skills). Even if the overall score is correct, a score of 5 or more in applied skills will result in failure. This app contains 596 questions from eight examinations held from 2019 to 2026, and all questions include the reasoning behind the correct answer and where the other options are incorrect. The mock exam is the same as the actual exam from 2024 onwards, with 150 minutes in the morning and 120 minutes in the afternoon, and you select and answer a predetermined number of questions for each section.
■ Features for this exam
- The home screen's passing criteria card has two meters: "Overall" and "Applied Skills." Based on your recent mock exam or practice test accuracy, you can determine how many questions you need to improve on, whether it's 36/60 or 6/10.
- Strategy for Multiple Choice Questions: We propose dividing the four sections—Architecture (6 out of 9 questions), Structural Construction (7 out of 10 questions), Finishing Construction (8 out of 10 questions), and Regulations (8 out of 12 questions)—into "Primary," "Backup," and "Later" based on your accuracy rate in each area.
- Mock Exam: The format is from 2024 onwards (10 questions on applied ability, five-option multiple choice). You cannot select more than the specified number of sections, and the results are displayed based on two criteria and the number of correct answers for each section.
- Schedule Lab: Calculate the critical path, junction time, and float of a network schedule, and the progress of a bar chart, changing the numbers as many times as needed. The solution method is confirmed step by step with diagrams.
- Practice the applied ability (five options, two choices) from Reiwa 3-5 and the written exam from Reiwa 1-2, in the same format as the original exam, organized by year.
- Regulations that have changed since the exam were created, such as the increase in the monetary standard of the Construction Industry Act in February 2025, are noted in the explanations.
