Part A Exam Preparation:

Practice with realistic mock exams mirroring the online proctored My Know format. Five question types — multiple choice, true/false, matching, fill-in-the-blank, and drag-and-drop — across timed 15-question papers. Track your scores against the real pass thresholds: 90% for COLREGs, 90% for Buoyage, 80% for Navigation Procedures, and 70% overall.

Part B Oral Exam Simulator:

Prepare for your oral examination with an AI-powered speech-to-text feature with assessor that analyses and grades your answers as well as provide model examples to the realistic scenarios. Practice structuring your answers, build confidence, and identify weak areas before the real thing.

Smart Flashcards:

A spaced repetition system adapts to your progress, surfacing the cards you need most and spacing out the ones you've mastered. Study efficiently, not endlessly.
