Studocu Launches Mock Exams to Help US Students Improve Grades
New York, NY, United States, 9th Dec 2025 – Studocu, an online educational platform, recently announced the launch of Mock Exams, a new AI-powered feature in Studocu AI designed to help students prepare for examinations under realistic testing conditions. The tool addresses growing concerns about examination anxiety and time constraints facing the 18.4 million students enrolled in U.S. higher education institutions as of Spring 2025.
Exam Anxiety and Academic Pressure
Academic pressure and examination anxiety affect students nationwide. According to the American College Health Association’s National College Health Assessment, 30% of students reported that anxiety negatively impacted their academics, while 78% experienced moderate or high stress levels. Consequently, many students struggle to perform at their best during exams.
The newly launched Mock Exams feature offers a solution by creating realistic practice tests customized to each student’s specific university and course. Students can either upload their own study materials—such as lecture notes, slides, or textbooks—or select from Studocu’s library of over 50 million student-shared documents. The AI then generates timed practice questions based on that content. This approach ensures that students can practice under conditions similar to their actual exams.
Key Features of Mock Exams
- Varied Question Formats: The platform generates both open-ended questions requiring detailed written responses and close-ended multiple-choice questions, mirroring actual exam formats.
- Timed Testing Environment: Mock Exams simulate real exam conditions, helping students manage time pressure effectively.
- Immediate Scoring and Feedback: Upon completion, students receive their marks along with comprehensive performance feedback.
- Detailed Explanations: Each question comes with “Expected Answer” explanations, reinforcing correct approaches and helping students learn from mistakes.
- Retry Functionality: Students can retake exams as many times as needed until they master the concepts and gain confidence.
- Integration with Study Assistant: After each test, students can access Study Assistant for clarification and deeper exploration of difficult topics.
- Course-Specific Customization: Questions are aligned with university-level curriculum and examination standards, ensuring relevant practice.
Data-Driven Exam Insights
“Studocu AI was developed using insights from more than 10 years of student-verified content and 50 million study documents. The platform draws on data from nearly a billion student study sessions to provide course-specific context for exam preparation,” said Stephen Ballot, Chief Product Officer at Studocu.
Mock Exams is part of the broader Studocu AI workspace, which consolidates multiple study tools into a single interface. For example, students can convert lectures into summaries using AI Notes, practice active recall with AI Quiz, or work on technical content using Smart Canvas Tools. Additionally, Notes-to-Audio and Notes-to-Video features support on-the-go review. The Study Assistant acts as an on-demand tutor, providing instant clarification and feedback. Together, these integrated tools maximize retention and exam readiness, regardless of students’ schedules.
Simplifying Exam Preparation
Traditional exam preparation presents significant logistical challenges locating relevant past papers, creating aligned practice questions, and simulating realistic testing conditions typically require substantial time investment.
Mock Exams removes these barriers by automatically generating customized practice tests that reflect actual course material and examination formats, enabling students to focus their time on mastering content and improving their grades.
