@ThatsJustLeah

If you take maths lit ... you aren’t expected to write the MAT, and you most probably wouldn’t be taking a degree that has one. But let’s say the course you applied for allows math lit if you pass the MAT you would need to prep quite a bit more as a lot of those concepts aren’t taught in math lit. But if you are just write the AQL you don’t have much to worry about just practice

how far in advance should a person start preparing for the nbt? do you think 2 weeks is enough?

@ThatsJustLeah

3 жыл бұрын

Hi, It of course depends on how good you are at Math and English, however, two weeks is not enough. Things covered for Math lit requires a lot of analytical thinking and figuring out Things covered for English requires some good reading and interpretation skills. You also have to know the meaning of words that you don't typically use everyday. For the pure math (MAT) you really need to give yourself some time for this. A lot of trigonometry and algebra questions that you don't see everyday is asked there. I don't mean to scare you, but if you're good at math there's nothing to worry about. However, if you okayish in math you really have to prepare well

Hey, So you don’t need to write MAT (but you could if you wanted to). The English and Math literacy section are both in the AQL test. So you choose if you want to write the MAT (pure math), AQL ( English and math literacy) or both.

The course I applied for was a BA IN DRAMA AND THEATRE STUDIES so why is it compulsory for me to do the nbt tests if I'm not gonna use it in my course?

@ThatsJustLeah

3 жыл бұрын

If I'm not mistaken, you would probably only need to write the AQL which is Math lit and English. Language and English is a big part of the BA side, so that could be a possibility. Secondly, remember that NBT is a placement test. It's just there to make sure that you are ready for tertiary studies

I honestly cannot remember, I was out of school two years now and I wrote the Olympiad test so long ago. But I can confidently say, that if you found that test somewhat easy you have nothing to stress about now. The NBT however, does test you on the rules too. There are some questions in the NBT require you to know the theory behind the principles in math not just the math itself
