Key Facts: Tahsili Scientific Exam
Tahsili scientific track is administered by the National Center for Assessment (Qiyas) under ETEC in Saudi Arabia.
ETEC/Qiyas describes Tahsili scientific content as biology, chemistry, physics, and mathematics from the secondary scientific curriculum.
Tahsili is distinct from GAT/Qudurat, which measures aptitude rather than curriculum achievement.
Tahsili is scored on a 0-100 scale and does not publish one universal pass mark for all universities.
Saudi universities combine Tahsili with high-school GPA and GAT/Qudurat according to program-specific admission formulas.
Current public sources commonly describe Tahsili questions as multiple-choice and delivered in timed sections.
This free Tahsili bank contains 100 questions, split evenly across mathematics, physics, chemistry, and biology.
Reported Qiyas registration fees commonly range from 100 to 150 SAR inside Saudi Arabia, with higher outside-Kingdom fees reported.
Saudi Arabia's Tahsili scientific-track test is an ETEC/Qiyas multiple-choice university-admission exam covering biology, chemistry, physics, and mathematics. It is scored 0-100, has no universal pass mark, and is combined with GPA and GAT/Qudurat in university admission formulas.

About the Tahsili Scientific Exam
The Saudi Tahsili scientific-track test, formally the Scholastic Achievement Admission Test for scientific specializations, is an ETEC/Qiyas university-admission exam for secondary-school graduates. It measures achievement in the scientific curriculum across biology, chemistry, physics, and mathematics, and is distinct from the GAT/Qudurat aptitude test and from STEP English proficiency. Universities combine Tahsili scores with high-school GPA and GAT/Qudurat according to their own admission formulas.
Exam sponsor: National Center for Assessment (Qiyas), under the Education and Training Evaluation Commission (ETEC). The requirements and fees below concern the certification or admission exam, separate from our free practice resources.
Assessment
Multiple-choice scientific achievement test for Saudi secondary-school graduates, covering biology, chemistry, physics, and mathematics. This practice bank uses an equal 25-question distribution across the four current scientific subjects; grade-level coverage should be reviewed separately because sources commonly describe heavier weighting for grade-12 material.
Time Limit
Commonly reported as five timed sections of about 25 minutes each, plus check-in and instructions. Confirm the exact time and sectioning in your Qiyas test notice.
Passing Score
Scored 0-100 with no universal pass/fail mark. Saudi universities set their own weighted admission formulas using high-school GPA, GAT/Qudurat, and Tahsili, and competitive majors may require high Tahsili results.
Exam / Certification Fees
Commonly reported Qiyas fees are 100 SAR for early paper registration, 150 SAR for late or computerized registration, and up to 200 SAR outside Saudi Arabia; confirm the current Tahsili fee in Qiyas e-services.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Tahsili scientific-track test?
Tahsili is Saudi Arabia's ETEC/Qiyas scholastic achievement admission test for scientific-track secondary graduates. It measures achievement in biology, chemistry, physics, and mathematics for university admission.
Is Tahsili the same as GAT/Qudurat?
No. Tahsili measures curriculum achievement in scientific high-school subjects, while GAT/Qudurat measures verbal and quantitative aptitude. Saudi universities often use both scores in their admission formulas.
How is Tahsili scored?
Tahsili is reported on a 0-100 scale and does not have one universal pass/fail score. Each university and program decides how much Tahsili counts in its weighted admission formula.
What subjects are on the scientific-track Tahsili test?
The current ETEC/Qiyas scientific-track description lists biology, chemistry, physics, and mathematics. This free bank contains 25 practice questions in each subject.
How many questions are on the real Tahsili test?
Official public pages confirm a multiple-choice test, but secondary sources conflict on the exact item count. Common descriptions range from about 110 to 160 items across timed sections, so candidates should confirm details in Qiyas e-services.
