The current study is trying to explore EFL college learners’ views regarding the usefulness and practicality of e-exams. A sample of student-teachers were asked to indicate their views concerning e-exam on a thirty-six item questionnaire. A descriptive research method employing surveys was adopted for this research. Convenient sampling sorted out fifty-three EFL college students in the College of Education to participate in the study voluntarily by filling in consent forms. The study findings revealed that the participants were satisfied with e-exams since the overall mean score of their attitudes was (3.75). All the questionnaire statements were rated high on all items except four items were rated as moderate. Based on the study results, recommendations for pedagogy were drawn, suggesting that more emphasis should be given to the mass application of e-exams in EFL classrooms. They should be applied to a wide range of academic courses. Suggestions for further research were forwarded at the end, suggesting that a similar study should explore the views of faculty members regarding e-exams. Keywords
