    You can't get it free. I had the Student and Teacher edition of Office 2003 and there was an option to add MS Access for about £30 (it's not included as standard).

    There's plenty of free database packages, but none are really comparable to MS Access in the way equivalents to Word and Excel are. If you say what exactly your exam covers someone might be able to suggest something suitable

    Well, openoffice base is similar to Access so you could try it to practice the basics, but there are quite a lot of differences.
