MAC practice questions - frequently asked questions

Plain answers about how MAC Exam Prep works: the exam, the questions, pricing, the free trial, and what you actually get.

No - and you should be wary of any site claiming otherwise. Every question here is original, written to mirror the style, difficulty, and judgment the real MAC exam tests. Each one comes with a plain-language explanation of why the right answer is right and the others aren't.

The MAC exam spans 5 domains: Orientation to the Treatment Process (11% of the exam); Assessment (23% of the exam); Ongoing Treatment Planning & Implementation (23% of the exam); Addiction Counseling Practices & Skills (23% of the exam); Professional Practices (20% of the exam). Every practice question on this site is tagged to one of these domains.

The domains are not weighted equally on the exam. By share of the marks: Assessment 23%; Ongoing Treatment Planning & Implementation 23%; Addiction Counseling Practices & Skills 23%; Professional Practices 20%; Orientation to the Treatment Process 11%.

The MAC exam has 150 questions and is completed in 3 hours. Our timed practice mirrors that length and pacing, so exam day feels familiar.
