If you have an Excel test coming up, practicing random formulas is not preparation. This pack is built around three timed mock tests that work the way a real screening round does—a dataset, a clock, and twenty questions that get harder as you go.
What’s inside
- Mock Test 1 — Foundations (30 minutes). SUM, AVERAGE, COUNT, IF, COUNTIF, SUMIF, COUNTIFS, and absolute references.
- Mock Test 2 — Lookup & Logic (35 minutes). VLOOKUP, HLOOKUP, SUMIFS, nested IF, IFS, DATEDIF, TRIM, LEFT/RIGHT/MID.
- Mock Test 3 — Advanced (40 minutes). INDEX/MATCH, XLOOKUP, SUMPRODUCT, UNIQUE, FILTER, PIVOT TABLES, SUBTOTAL.
- Answer keys for all 60 questions—the formula and the reasoning. Knowing why SUMIFS reverses its argument order is what gets you through the follow-up question.
- 42 Excel interview questions with answers written to be said out loud—30 core questions plus 12 on AI and automation: Copilot, Python in Excel, Power Query, Office Scripts, and what to do when AI writes you a formula that is subtly wrong.
- Printable one-page function reference—29 functions, syntax, and what each is actually for.
- Progress tracker—log each attempt, retake a week later. The gap between the two scores is the real result.
Who it’s for
Anyone sitting an Excel screening test for a data entry, analyst, accounts, or operations role. If you can already write INDEX/MATCH from memory without looking it up, you probably don’t need this.
The free sheets stay free.
Every practice workbook on xplorexcel.com is free to download and always will be. This pack adds what free practice can’t: timed conditions, worked reasoning, and the questions you get asked out loud.
Updated October 2026 to cover Copilot and Python in Excel. Instant download. Built for Excel 2016 and later. Most questions work in Google Sheets too; the few that are Excel-only are marked.
