Curriculum outline
Section 1 – Orientation
Familiarizing learners with our online learning platform and assisting them to set up a helpful study plan based on their context. The orientation section helps learners to start their preparation on the front foot.
Section 2 – Mock MAT test 1
Learners are encouraged to take one of our mock MAT tests upfront so as to identify early on where their knowledge gaps are and where they should focus their attention in the lessons that follow.
Section 3 – Mathematics modules
The MAT test which tests Mathematics is a challenging assessment for learners due to the way in which questions are asked. Its difficulty is compounded by the fact that learners are not allowed to use their calculators. In the MAT learning modules, we go through the 12 sub-domains that are tested in the MAT test of the NBTs. We take an applied approach and are careful to show learners techniques on how to solve problems without their calculator.
Section 4 – Mock MAT test 2
Once learners have worked through the learning modules, they are then encouraged to take the 2nd MAT mock test. We are confident that, if learners have applied themselves through the course, they will see a significant improvement in their test score.
Section 5 – MAT spot quiz tool
We then have a helpful spot quiz tool that learners can use to keep momentum in their preparation and keep their skills sharp. This tool dynamically serves a random subset of 5 questions from our database of hundreds of questions so that learners can keep practising their MAT skills.

Would highly recommend this NBT course. The video explanations are a great help and many of the Math questions were very similar to the actual NBT. Do make sure that you give yourself sufficient time to work through the course.

I thoroughly enjoyed this application as it prepared me for the NBT setting with relevant information and time constraints, however i was slightly irritated by the fact that i couldn't reset mock tests once i had completed them. I suggest the option for individuals to reset mock tests on certain topics once completed. Otherwise this is an amazing service and i would strongly recommend it to anyone preparing for the NBTs.

This online preparation course is not only helpful for the NBTs themselves. It might as well prepare you for a possible unseen (higher order) question in the matric preparatory or final exam since it goes beyond what is normally assessed in the NSC.

Wow learning has never been made that easy, Mam Pike. I am actually a university graduate student but since I was a learner and now student, Ive never experienced such detailed level of explanation within short bits and pieces of information.

Incredible. Even though i am kind of a slacker without this course i would not have done any good in the real NBTs.

I have a really unique situation basically being from another country as far as school is concerned. I would have liked a more in depth explanation in the math section, but it was a great overall experience and i felt like all the bases were covered with this program. Double thumbs up!!

it was a great help i didnt use the AQL prep as much as the maths prep but what i did use really helped me. having the past papers and having them set out the way it is tested really prepared me for my time management and i was able to complete the paper in time.

This course is exactly what I was looking for. I had done a previous course which did not prepare me for the NBT's at all, but after only 14% into this course, I already feel much more confident.

An extremely helpful course! NBT MAT was a breeze because of your help! I would advise the course to contain some financial mathematics though, as they ask simple problems from it... But ultimately very helpful and definitely worth every penny!

All my friends who took the NBTs failed. Not me. The difference? I had Advantage Learn on my side! Seriously the NBTs were tough and I'm really glad I got help. Honestly when I wrote the NBTs it practically felt like I was cheating, because I recognized concepts in the paper literally designed to throw me off, then quickly and efficiently answered their related questions. Thank you so much Advantage Learn! I'd recommend this to anyone writing the NBTs, especially those who finished school with the Cambridge curriculum.

Trish, who I'm pretty sure is the mathematics teacher, is really the bomb. She is querky (in the good way) and genuine. Although I cannot remember the English teacher's name, she offered no less in terms of expertise. I got this vibe from her that she'd be one of those 'strict' teachers, but I'm sure she is rather nice *insert laughing face*. Lastly, the actual course as a whole was fantastic. I just wish I had prepared more.

It's a great course. Very thorough. The only thing that's missing is from the maths section: logarithms and other matric work taught later in the year. The support team is also really helpful.

I love the questions. They're really great and easy to understand. Thanks for making this program available to me. The reason why I gave only 4 stars was because the questions were not enough. Please try to increase the questions. Thanks.
