About Test Preparation

UBC Continuing Studies GMAT, GRE and LSAT preparation courses are custom-designed and taught by experienced adult educators. Since launching our test preparation courses in 2007, our program area has grown quickly to include over 18 course offerings per year that typically run at maximum capacity.

The principles underlying our test preparation courses are:

• Provide a quality UBC alternative to the wide range of test preparation options available. We guarantee academic integrity and quality.
• Reduce anxiety and demystify the exam. The intent of our courses is to explain the structure and content of the exams so students know what to expect and can prepare accordingly.
• Offer a safe and collegial environment to practise and hone skills. We provide students with a structure and dedicated time to practise with each other and the instructor. Instructors are also available for one-on-one consultations.
• Connect the exam structure to the associated professions and graduate programs. Our instructors link content to practice based on their own professional experience.

We are continually updating our curriculum and course offerings to ensure a wide range of schedules and options. In addition to full comprehensive courses, short workshops cover specific sections of the tests.

Courses take place on evenings and weekends both at the UBC Point Grey campus and downtown at UBC Robson Square.
