Frequently asked questions
Who can use Passa?
Passa is open to students of Adama Science and Technology University (Computer Science and Engineering, Electrical Power and Control Engineering, Civil Engineering and Mechanical Engineering), Addis Ababa Science and Technology University and Addis Ababa Institute of Technology (Civil Engineering and Mechanical Engineering). More universities and departments will follow.
Are these the real exit exam questions?
Passa has two kinds of questions. Most are original practice questions written by our editorial team and organised by the official course list and themes for each program. We also add past national exit exam papers, only with permission from the rights holders, and label them "Past exam, used with permission". Practice results do not guarantee a result in the official exam.
What does the free plan include?
One sample question from every course in your track, a short timed diagnostic test, up to five practice sessions a day and full progress tracking.
How do I pay?
Premium is paid once with Telebirr. Choose a plan, send the exact amount to the Passa Telebirr account shown on your order, then enter the transaction number from your SMS. Passa checks the official Telebirr receipt and activates your access.
Why was my transaction number not accepted?
The receipt must show a completed transfer, sent to the Passa account, for exactly the order amount, made after the order was created. A transaction number can only be used once. The message on the order page explains which check failed. If you believe it is correct, contact support with the order reference.
Does Premium renew automatically?
No. Each payment gives a fixed number of days. We send a reminder before your access ends.
What happens if my connection drops during an exam?
Keep answering. Answers are saved on your device and sent to Passa when you reconnect. The timer for mock exams runs on our server, so it keeps counting even if you close the page, and the exam submits itself when time runs out.
Can other students see my scores?
No. Your results are private. There are no public rankings.
I found a mistake in a question. What should I do?
Use Report a problem on the question, during practice or when reviewing your results. Our editors and academic reviewers check every report. Corrections never change results you have already received.
Does signing in with Google verify that I am a student at my university?
No. Google confirms your email address only. You choose your university and department during setup, and some features may later ask you to verify your enrolment.
