What difficulty levels do the official dMAT practice exercises use?

The official dMAT practice exercises are graded into three difficulty levels, low, medium and high, and you get two exercises at each level for every Core Module task type. This grading matters because the real exam does not warn you which level a given item belongs to; difficulties are mixed within the same timed subtest.

Difficulty Levels at a Glance

Building a Study Plan Around Three Levels

• Start with the low-difficulty exercise for each task type to lock in the rules before adding time pressure.
• Move to medium difficulty once the rules feel automatic, and start timing yourself against the roughly 75 seconds per item pace the real exam demands.
• Finish on the high-difficulty exercises, since these best simulate the hardest items you will meet in the actual 25-minute, 20-item subtests.

My Advice

Do not skip straight to the high-difficulty exercises to save time. Working through all three levels in order builds the layered confidence the exam actually rewards, and timing your high-difficulty attempts honestly will tell you far more about your readiness than a single fast run through easy items.
