We do our best to pair you with a tutor who can work conveniently with your existing schedule. You can access your virtual study sessions anywhere that you have a reliable internet connection.
While the main focus of an NBE prep course is the relevant material that will be covered on the exam itself, instructors can also share tips and strategies with you that they have found success with when encountering tricky or difficult portions of the test. They can also prepare you for the format you will see on exam day. Listed below are some policies that you need to know heading into the NBE:
Top Five Exam Policies to Remember
- Applications expire after 1 year
- Payments are non-refundable
- Personal identification must match the name on the application
- Candidates are responsible for arriving on time
- Exam content cannot be discussed with anyone
If you do not perform as well as you would have liked on the NBE, you are able to sit for the exam three times over any 12-month period. You must wait 90 days after taking the test once before you can take it again. Perhaps you have already taken the exam and would like to try again to improve your score. An NBE class through 大象传媒 can improve your chances at doing just that.
Many participants find that working with a private tutor benefits them in a variety of ways. Tutors are able to first evaluate your strengths and weaknesses and tailor their lesson plans to work best with your individual learning style. They can spend their study time with you focusing on specific areas of the exam where you happen to have gaps in your knowledge.
