# Aviation Exam vs MTestM

The clearest difference is ads: Aviation Exam at none against MTestM's shown. Aviation Exam also leads on review sentiment (79% vs 49%) and ratings volume (495 vs 96). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Aviation Exam sells 30 one-off in-app purchases and MTestM sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for Aviation Exam against 4.9 for MTestM. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Aviation Exam has 495 ratings behind it against 96, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 79% of Aviation Exam's written reviews are positive against 49% of MTestM's.

Aviation Exam ships an update every 2 months, MTestM every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
