About MRT2 Mock Paper 2
This is mock paper 2 of 5 for MRT2, the Mortgage Products & Post-Completion unit of CeMAP. The 5 papers in this unit run easier → harder so you can build up to exam standard rather than being thrown in at the deep end. This one sits in the standard tier: it is pitched at roughly live-exam difficulty, with distractors that are all plausible until you read them properly.
Every question carries a written explanation, so a wrong answer tells you which rule you have misread instead of just costing you a mark. Questions are original, written against the 2025/26 five-unit CeMAP syllabus, and cover the material the way the examiner tests it — precise recall where recall is tested, and judgement where the paper wants judgement.
Format, timing and pass mark
MRT2 Mock Paper 2 follows the live MRT2 format: 40 standalone questions, in 60 minutes — about 90 seconds a question. Pass mark 28/40 (70%), as in the real assessment. There is no negative marking, so answer everything.

Repayment methods
A first-time buyer choosing a 35-year term rather than 25 years for a capital-and-interest mortgage should understand that the longer term:
- AIs prohibited by the FCA for first-time buyers
- BHas no effect on total interest because the rate is the same
- CReduces both the monthly payment and the total interest paid, because spreading the capital over more months lowers the interest accrued
- DReduces the monthly payment but substantially increases the total interest paid, and may run past intended retirement age
Reveal the answer
D is correct. Stretching the term lowers each payment because capital is spread over more months, but the balance reduces more slowly, so interest accrues for longer and the total cost rises. Lenders will also test affordability into retirement where the term extends beyond expected retirement age.
Repayment methods
A 'part-and-part' mortgage is one where:
- ATwo lenders each provide half of the advance
- BA portion of the loan is on capital-and-interest and the remainder is interest-only with its own repayment strategy
- CThe loan is split equally between the two joint borrowers
- DThe borrower pays interest only for the first half of the term and then capital only for the second half, hence the name
Reveal the answer
B is correct. Part-and-part splits the balance between repayment and interest-only elements, guaranteeing at least partial capital reduction while keeping payments below a full repayment basis. The interest-only slice still needs a credible repayment strategy under MCOB.
Scored under 70%? Revise these next
A near miss is almost always a calculation you cannot do under time pressure, a definition you half-know, or a rule you have never read in the examiner's words. Start with the topic areas above where you dropped marks, then:
- →Drill the calculations on the CeMAP formula sheet — LTV, income multiples, SDLT, APRC, ERCs and rental cover, each worked through.
- →Nail the terminology in the CeMAP glossary — a surprising share of wrong answers are a term you nearly knew.
- →Re-read the syllabus coverage on the MRT2 exam guide, then sit the next paper in the ramp.
