How it works
Everything you need, and how it fits together
A quick tour of what is inside Revision Companion and how people use it, from the first practice question to the night before the exam.
Step one
Pick your module
The qualification has three modules. Each one has its own questions, flashcards, guides and mock papers, laid out like the real exam.
| Module | Units | Real paper | Time | Pass mark |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FSRE | FRE1, FRE2 | 25 standalone questions + 3 case studies of 5 linked questions (40 marks) | 60 min | 70% |
| Mortgages | MRT1 | 50 standalone questions | 60 min | 35 / 50 |
| MRT2 | 40 standalone questions | 60 min | 28 / 40 | |
| AMAK | ASEW (England & Wales), ASSC (Scotland) | 6 case studies of 10 linked questions (60 marks) | 120 min | 42 / 60 |
Formats follow the LIBF specification and specimen papers at the time of writing. Always check the current LIBF specification before you sit.
Step two
Choose how to work
Inside each module there are six ways to study. Most people mix them over a week.
Practice by topic
Untimed. Pick the topics you want to focus on and get feedback and an explanation after every question.
Mock exam
Timed. Choose topics or the whole module. Feedback is held back until the end, as in the real exam.
Exam simulation
A full paper in the real format with the real time limit. Part of the full version.
Flashcards
Term on the front, definition and explanation on the back, on a five-box spaced schedule.
Study guides
A one-page cheat sheet and a short lesson for each topic, ending with a quick check-yourself round.
My progress
Recent sessions, scores by topic and your weakest topics, so you know where the next hour should go.
Inside a session
What a question looks like
Clean, focused and quick to get through. Nothing to set up and nothing in the way.
- Topic and progress sit at the top, so you always know where you are
- Four options, reshuffled every session
- An explanation that says why the answer is right, and what the trap was
- Flag it to come back to later, or have it read aloud
Study guides
For the night before, or the first time through
Every topic has two short pieces, written to be read on a phone.
The three-minute lesson
Short steps and a recap.
- Bite-sized explanation, step by step
- A recap of what matters
- A “Check yourself” round of real questions
- Back to the lesson to fix any gaps
Progress without pressure
Keep going, gently
Revision is a habit before it is a skill. Revision Companion keeps score in a quiet way that rewards turning up.
- A daily goal of 10, 20 or 40 questions, and a streak for consecutive days
- XP and levels, plus 21 badges for milestones, lessons and perfect rounds
- Celebrations stay out of the way, and are switched off during mock exams
- Change the goal or reset everything in Settings
