Former Hogwarts student and current Hogwarts professor and deputy headmistress, Christi Weinzierl, recommends Mometrix to her students as an excellent resource as they prepare for their OWL examinations and NEWTs.
Tests and exams are part of life for so many at various ages and stages, whether they are part of a child’s education or a requirement for an adult’s career certification. The Wyoming State Library’s GoWYLD Resources include a tool to help anyone prepare for and feel confident going into a test or exam-Mometrix!
For Hogwarts students preparing for their important Ordinary Wizarding Level (OWL) examinations and Nastily Exhausting Wizarding Tests (NEWTs), Mometrix offers flashcards, study guides, and practice tests for various subject areas at every grade level, including Herbology, Defense Against the Dark Arts, History of Magic, Charms, and many more. These resources can help students become familiar with the test’s format and give examples of what questions may be on their exam. Using these resources can be a great strategy for reducing test anxiety and making sure your student is truly able to show what they know. There are also resources to help students who will be graduating from Hogwarts soon apply for financial aid for higher education, select a career path, apply for scholarships, and apply for college or a job.
“I highly recommend Mometrix to all of my Hogwarts students, especially those in their fifth and seventh years who are preparing for their OWLs and NEWTs,” said Christi Weinzierl, former Hogwarts student and current Hogwarts professor and deputy headmistress. “I truly wish this resource had been available to me as a student at Hogwarts back in the day. My former classmate and current Minister of Magic Hermione Granger and I used to spend hours pouring over books and just taking guesses at what would be on the exams. Mometrix helps students focus on the most important material and use their study time more effectively, leaving more time for other interests including Quidditch, wizard’s chess, raising dragons, or fighting for the equal rights of house elves.”
For adults of the wizarding community seeking career certifications for their profession or trade, Mometrix offers flashcards, study guides, and practice tests to help you advance in your professions. From information on auror training to competency exams for positions in the Ministry of Magic, you will find what you need on Mometrix. Mometrix also has resources that provide tips on writing or updating your resume, asking and answering questions in a job interview, and negotiating a job offer and an extensive eLibrary of short videos that explain specific concepts in Arithmancy, Divination, and even Care of Magical Creatures.
Whether you’re a fifth-year studying for your OWLs, a seventh-year studying for your NEWTs, or an adult witch or wizard trying to further your education or career, Mometrix can help you make the grade on your next test or exam or ace that job interview.
