Domain Exams
Written, proof-based exams for serious self-study in math and CS.
The Vision
“Free education is abundant, all over the Internet. It’s the desire to learn that’s scarce.”
Textbooks are cheap, courses are everywhere, and AI tutors are free. Access to knowledge is no longer the bottleneck. Validation is. There is no widely recognized way to demonstrate mastery of a subject—no matter how seriously it was studied. Domain Exams fills that gap by providing a durable, credible mark of achievement.
What Domain Exams Are
Domain Exams are written examinations that assess mastery of undergraduate-level material in mathematics and theoretical computer science. They emphasize correct reasoning and proof-based justification, with clearly defined scope and standards.
- Written and proof-based — not multiple choice.
- Standards, not ranking — results reflect absolute performance.
- Depth over breadth — each exam is narrow but rigorous.
- Reasoning-first — understanding over memorization.
