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