Recommended Study Plan

Step 1 — Read the ICAS Guide

Work through the ICAS Guide lessons (sections 2.1–2.4) to understand the exam format, registration process and what to expect on the day. Do this before anything else.

Step 2 — Study each subject guide

Work through the English, Mathematics and Science Study Guide lessons. Each guide explains key concepts with worked examples and strategies. There are also Quick Reference sheets for revision.

Step 3 — Attempt the mock timed

Sit each subject separately, timed. English: 45 min. Mathematics: 45 min. Science: 45 min. This trains the stamina and pace the real ICAS requires.

Step 4 — Review every explanation

Read the explanation for every answer — right and wrong. ICAS tests higher-order thinking; understanding WHY an answer is correct is more valuable than the score itself.
