Free Security+ (SY0-701) Practice Questions - the Full Bank, No Account
Key facts
Format: Multiple choice and performance-based, at Pearson VUE testing center or online proctored
The full Security+ SY0-701 practice bank on examworthy is free: 331 questions across all five exam domains, 609 flashcards, unlimited timed mocks, no account and no payment required. Most Security+ prep sites give you a handful of sample questions before asking you to sign up or pay - this one does not, because the bank is free in full rather than free as a preview.
Every SY0-701 practice question and flashcard on examworthy is free, with no account and no payment, for every domain of the exam.

What Is Actually Free
All 331 questions, all 609 flashcards, and unlimited full timed mock exams for SY0-701 are open to anyone - signed in or not. There is no question cap, no flashcard cap, and no mock limit the way there is on every other cert on the site, where a free account gets 15 questions and 40 flashcards, and an anonymous visitor gets 7 and 20. SY0-701 has none of that: the whole bank is the free tier.
Every question carries a full explanation for the correct answer and for why each incorrect option is wrong, the same depth as the paid tier on any other cert. Nothing is held back for a later upsell.
What the Bank Covers
The questions are split across the exam's five official domains, weighted the same way CompTIA weights the real exam: Security Operations (92 questions), Threats, Vulnerabilities, and Mitigations (72), Security Program Management and Oversight (67), Security Architecture (60), and General Security Concepts (40). That weighting matters for study time - Security Operations is the single largest domain on the real exam, and it is the largest practice pool here for the same reason.
The real exam is a maximum of 90 questions in 90 minutes, with a passing score of 750 out of 900 and a USD 425 exam fee. Nothing about the practice bank is scaled down to match that count - 331 questions means you can drill each domain far past what a single exam attempt would show you before you ever sit the real thing.
Why This Cert Is Free and Others Are Not
Every other cert bank on examworthy sits behind the same free-tier limits described above, with a $29 one-time unlock for that cert's full bank or $14.99/month for every cert in the catalogue. SY0-701 is the one exception, made free in full because people looking for Security+ prep are genuinely searching for free material in meaningful numbers, and a capped free tier does not serve that search intent honestly - a page promising "free Security+ practice questions" that hands over 15 questions and then asks for payment is not what the phrase means to the person searching it.
This is a standing choice for SY0-701 specifically, not a temporary promotion, and not a signal that the rest of the catalogue is moving the same way.
How to Use It Well
Work through Security Operations and Threats/Vulnerabilities/Mitigations first - together they are 164 of the 331 questions and the two domains most exam-takers report spending the most study time on. Use the flashcards for the vocabulary-heavy material (protocol names, attack types, control categories) and the question bank for scenario judgment, since Security+ leans heavily on performance-based, apply-the-concept items rather than pure recall.
Take a full timed mock once you have been through every domain at least once, not before - a mock taken cold measures unfamiliarity with the format more than actual readiness, and the value of an unlimited mock allowance is that you can afford to wait until it tells you something real.
Stop guessing whether you are ready.
