ยท 2 min readHow to take the glossary quiz and typing test (and score higher)
Step-by-step: how the Naati Practice glossary quiz and one-minute typing test work, how they're scored, and how to get on the leaderboard.
Alongside the mock tests, Naati Practice has two quick games that build the skills behind a good CCL score: recalling key terms and typing accurately.
The glossary quiz
- Open the glossary quiz.
- Pick a topic (tenancy, legal, Centrelink, healthcare, immigration or all) and a direction: English to your language, your language to English, or mixed.
- Answer 10 multiple-choice questions. Each has four options, and the wrong ones come from the same topic, so they're tricky.
- You get 10 points for each right answer, plus 5 bonus points if you answer within 5 seconds, so the maximum is 150.
- At the end, review the terms you missed and share your result.
The typing test
- Open the typing test.
- Type the highlighted word and press space. The clock starts with your first key.
- Your score is the number of words you type correctly in one minute: 50 correct words scores 50.
- Your best score goes on the Top 20 leaderboard, shown by first name and last initial.
Tips to score higher
- Accuracy first: a wrong word doesn't count, so slow down slightly rather than rush.
- Do one quiz round in each direction every day. Recognising a term and producing it are different skills.
- Revisit the glossary for the terms you miss.
Frequently asked questions
- Are the quiz and typing test free?
- Yes, both are free for anyone with an account.
- Can I share my score?
- Yes. The results screen has a Share result button that makes a story-sized image for Instagram, Facebook or WhatsApp.
