Mastering the 42 Exam: A Complete Guide to Using GitHub Resources (2026 Update)

If you are currently a cadet in the 42 Network—or are preparing to brave the famous "Piscine"—you have probably typed the phrase "42-exam github" into your search bar more times than you care to admit. You are not alone.

Other Useful 42 Exam-Related Repos

• 42-exam-rank-02 – focused practice for the first exam
• Exam-42 by jcluzet – includes automatic grading scripts
• 42-exam-shell – if you need Shell exercises specifically

• Using these repos for practice is widespread and tolerated by most campuses (if not officially approved).
• Copying solutions during the actual exam is tracked by 42’s Moulinette and peer review—getting caught can lead to expulsion.
• 42 has cracked down on public exam repos in the past (DMCA takedowns, internal warnings), but new ones keep appearing.

Step 3: Force Yourself to Use norminette

The real exam deducts points for norm errors. Your simulator should do the same. Before typing grademe, run:

• README.md — overview, prerequisites, usage, disclaimers.
• Directories per subject or project (e.g., piscine-day00, ft_printf, libft, get_next_line).
• Solutions: source files (.c, .py, .sh, .js), often with comments or minimal obfuscation.
• Test suites: unit tests, shell scripts, Makefiles, expected input/output samples.
• Automated checkers: scripts to compile, run, compare output, or simulate campus checkers.
• Utilities: template Makefiles, header files, helper functions, CI configuration (.github/workflows).
• Metadata: issue trackers, pull requests, tags like [42], [exam], [piscine].
• Licensing: often missing, ambiguous, or permissive (MIT, Unlicense) regardless of content origin.
• Large forks and aggregates that mirror many student solutions.
