About FreeExamTimer
Built for teachers.
Trusted in high-stakes exam halls.

The Problem with Existing Timers
When projecting a clock onto a giant auditorium screen or classroom board, the last thing candidates should see is a video ad, flashing sidebar banner, or sudden pop-up asking for cookie consent. Moreover, standard timers don't know the rules of formal examinations: they don't support official reading time phases, and they don't calculate access arrangement extra time for students with special educational needs.
Engineered for Exam Hall Demands
Dedicated Reading Time
Full support for 5, 10, or 15 minutes of initial reading time. Displays unmistakable notices that writing is forbidden, before auto-transitioning with a calm chime.
Dual Finish Clocks (+25% Extra Time)
Automatically calculates JCQ and standard access arrangements. Candidates and invigilators see both the standard paper finish time and the +25% finish time simultaneously.
Anxiety Reduction Mode
Rapidly counting seconds can induce unnecessary panic during early exam hours. Our optional setting hides seconds until the final 5 minutes, fostering a calm exam atmosphere.
One-Key Projector Mode
Press F for instant full-screen projection. All non-essential navigation controls fade into the background, leaving a stark, ultra-legible display visible across the entire hall.
Supporting Global Examination Boards
FreeExamTimer is routinely used across schools and test preparation centers preparing for major global examination formats, including:
