Not another exam to study for and forget
Internal exams tell you who passed. They do not tell you where your understanding breaks down, or how you compare with the standard for your year. Knowledge Sonar is built to show exactly that.
Applies, not recalls
Questions follow real life, on the job style scenarios from your own major, not textbook definitions you can memorise for one night.
Brutally honest
Nothing is at stake for your mark sheet. It works like a health check up, so you can see your real gaps and fix them before they cost you at placements or further study.
Online and flexible
One sitting of 125 questions in 90 minutes, taken online. No centre visit, no change to your college timetable.
One registration. Your major decides your exam.
Knowledge Sonar is available for every major below. Registration is a single registration, and the major you select decides which exam login you receive. Select it correctly.

A 4 week plan, not vague advice
Instead of "revise more", the report lists the exact concepts you missed and orders them by how many marks they will recover.
Fix the biggest gap
Start with the concept that cost you marks in more than one test block.
Close the next gap
Work through the next missed concepts using the pointers in your report.
Build fast recall
Turn formulas, codes and standards into quick reference notes.
Practise across topics
Attempt problems that combine subject areas, then plan your next sitting.

Questions, answered
Is Knowledge Sonar a certification or a licence exam?
No. Knowledge Sonar does not certify, accredit or license anyone for anything. It is a diagnostic test that shows you where your understanding of your major is strong and where it breaks down. It does not replace or count toward any university, board or regulatory exam.
Why is choosing the correct major so important?
Registration is a single registration for every major, but the major you select decides which exam login you receive. Each major has its own question set built around its own subjects. If you select the wrong major you will be shown an exam for a different course of study and your report will not reflect what you have actually studied. Check your major before you submit.
How long is the exam and how many questions are there?
One sitting of 125 questions in 90 minutes, taken online. There is no syllabus to cram, because the exam checks whether you can apply what you have already studied.
Do I need to be supervised or visit a centre?
No. The exam is taken online in your own time, so it needs no change to your college timetable and no invigilation set up by faculty.
What do I get at the end?
An AI generated diagnostic report with your overall score, subject wise scores, the exact concepts you missed, where you stand against your batch and against general international knowledge benchmarking standards, and a 4 week action plan to close the gaps.
What does it cost?
$50 per student (list price $99), one time. Colleges and universities that want to enrol a whole batch or department should contact us for institutional pricing through the contact form.
Is it a subscription?
No. We store no card or payment details and nothing renews automatically. We recommend taking the exam once a year so you can track your progress, but that is always your choice. If you skip a year, nothing happens.
Can a college run it for a whole batch?
Yes. Colleges and universities can enrol a full batch or department, or start with a single class section as a pilot. Use the contact form for institutional pricing.
