Everything you need, from your first practice session to exam day.

On exam day, you'll have been there before
Identical to the real exam. Same clock, same interface, same constraints. The transition from simulator to exam day shouldn't have friction — ours doesn't.
Every spare moment counts

Learn from every mistake
We don't tell you where you failed. We teach you not to fall next time. Pedagogical explanations with explicit citation to treaty, regulation or NoC.
Write the way the institutions write

The platform covers everything you need, it is very competitively priced, and I have not run into a single problem!
The development and user support team acts with absolute speed and initiative. Open to any change request, and usability improves by the minute. Excellent, and worth recommending to anyone preparing G+
As a beginner, I really appreciate how user-friendly the layout is. Each section builds on the last, and seeing my own progress makes this an easy 5-star review.
Very useful tool for preparing for EU competitions. The questions are well structured and cover the topics you need to practice. […] Overall, I would definitely recommend it to anyone preparing for an EU competition.
Very good experience, it has helped me to revise for my oppositions for the EU, it has lots of up to date content and practical exercises that are very similar to the real ones! I loved the AI tool! It is very intuitive and knows everything about the program’s content.
Very good experience. Really up-to-date material, and explanations and summaries that are genuinely enjoyable to read — with subjects this dense, that goes a long way. You can tell they care that you understand everything and that you are not just another number.
Very useful explanations. The level of the questions is far more realistic than on other platforms. Very close to what you will find in the exam. I would use it again to prepare.
Start with the guides. Practise for free.
Practise. And study at the same time.
Most platforms confirm the correct answer. EU/now inoculates you against the exact cognitive trap — so you won't fall for the same distractor next time.
Direct effect is the correct answer. The context emphasizes that EU legal provisions are directly applicable in each Member State.
Direct effect allows individuals to invoke EU law directly before national courts — exactly what "directly applicable in each Member State" means. Unlike conferral or subsidiarity, it describes how a rule operates once enacted.
Subsidiarity determines who should act — EU or Member States. It says nothing about how a law operates once in force.
Proportionality governs necessity and scale of a measure. The text discusses applicability, not whether an action goes further than needed.
Conferral concerns how the EU acquired competence. Once enacted, the question is how the law applies — not where authority originated.

The screen, the clock and the tools will already feel familiar, so your mind stays on the questions. We reproduce TAO/OAT, EPSO's official platform for 2025–2029, in detail: highlighter, line reader, scratchpad, calculator and countdown.
- No surprises on screen.Same shortcuts, same time constraints, same navigation flow between questions.
- Pressure, already trained.The clock never pauses, just like on exam day.
- You know what you can and can't do.No back, no skip, no flag — only when EPSO permits it.

In your pocket. On the metro, in the coffee line.
Practice anywhere: short sessions, full exams, timed mocks. The native iOS app syncs your progress with the web — start a session on iPhone, finish on laptop.
«Must», «should» and «may» are not interchangeable in EU law — and EPSO calibrates the trap right there. Before choosing, mark the modal verbs in every option. It's the most profitable pattern you'll learn.
