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 AQL test 1
Learners are encouraged to take one of our mock AQL 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 – Academic Literacy modules
Our Academic Literacy lessons then take learners through the 8 Academic Literacy subdomains that are tested in the AQL test of the NBT’s. Learners are taught and reminded of fundamental theory and then given an opportunity to practise throughout the Academic Literacy modules.
Section 4 – Quantitative Literacy modules
Quantitative Literacy is an especially challenging section especially since learners are not allowed to use a calculator. Here we recap important arithmetic techniques that empower learners to succeed without a calculator. We make sure learners are well equipped to answer questions for the 7 subdomains that are tested in the Quantitative Literacy sections of the AQL test.
Section 5 – Mock NBT test
Once learners have worked through the learning modules, they are then encouraged to take the 2nd AQL 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 6 – AQL 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 either their Academic Literacy or Quantitative Literacy skills.

Reviews
Thank you so much, this course was extremely helpful. I left high school a while ago and this was a great revision for my NBTs. I would recommend this to anyone who is serious about getting that good score to qualify for your degree and getting accepted into University.

I am grateful for this programme as I am more prepared for the test. It gets tricky in the beginning, but you gradually get the hang of it .

It’s a good course, but some of the lectures are as confused as I am. They don’t seem to know what they are do.

I have not written the test yet but the information and the knowledge I have already has made a huge difference and also the confidence I have towards the test is really amazing, I don't want to count the chickens before they hatch let us wait for the test date before I praise you fully.
