NCE Exam Prep 2026 | EZPrep

EDIT: If I could give fewer stars for the abusive response comment, I would. Future counselors and therapists of any quality will hopefully recognize the manipulation tactics and find support elsewhere. Not once did I state that I was under the impression this is for the CECE, only that I was using it as a tool for that prep; they victim-blame instead and try to turn it around on me. Super cool story guys, still abusive tactics. Zero stars. Oh, and don’t tell people how to leave reviews. That’s business 101 cues that you are trying to skew your feed. The app description gives a cutesy but manipulative little throwaway that I missed in my search for a CECE exam study app. “Free trial before committing because we know you’re not into toxic relationships.” Hmm…. Perhaps don’t be toxic from the start. Maybe I need to freshen up on noticing red flags🚩with good ole’ fashion notes cramming instead. This is predatory and depends on stressed out testers coming here for quick help. Don’t sink your money, folks. Read the rest of the 1-star reviews first. Just glad I read them before paying for the monthly cram thing… 🙄

This app (and equally so the accompanying podcast, Passing the Counseling NCE Exam) helped me refresh, learn, and practice to pass the NCE. The NCE has 400 questions in two 200 question blocks. If you string a bunch of these practice exams togethers, it can help practice sitting and doing question after question after question when you’re sitting for the official one. I really like how this app gamified the studying process. The little badges to earn were fun. I also appreciated the “learn” mode with concise explanations of the correct answer. It gave me a place to explore/review when I didn’t understand other options or terms. I don’t think it’s enough on its own, but this and the podcast is how I did almost all of my studying.

I graduated two years ago and failed my first and second attempt by one point each time. I used this app for the first time in July, along with another study aid. This app had more and different questions on it, which challenged me. I passed my exam on July 26th by seven points. I highly recommend this app. The only thing I would recommend is allowing the usage of the app on multiple devices. Luckily I downloaded it to my tablet, which is what is mainly use when I study. It would have been nice to use it on my cell phone as well.
