Welcome to the Achievable CLT Course! We’re thrilled to have you here as you embark on a journey through classical texts, rigorous reasoning, and timeless wisdom. The Classic Learning Test (CLT) is more than just an exam; it’s a gateway to some of the most influential ideas and authors in history. This course is designed to strengthen your skills, deepen your understanding, and, ultimately, prepare you to tackle the CLT with confidence and clarity. Whether you’re taking the CLT for college admissions or to gain a specific target score tied to a scholarship award, this course is here to support you every step of the way.
The Classic Learning Test assesses your reading comprehension, analytical thinking, and mathematical reasoning using material rooted in the Great Books and classical education. Unlike many standardized tests, the CLT emphasizes the importance of moral and intellectual virtue, drawing content from works of literature, philosophy, theology, and history. You’ll encounter passages from authors such as Aristotle, Frederick Douglass, Jane Austen, and St. Augustine. Alongside these, the CLT also includes questions that will challenge your mathematical skills, asking you to think critically about numbers, equations, and patterns. By engaging with these texts and questions, you’re not only preparing for a test but also immersing yourself in ideas that have shaped civilizations.
This course is designed to be your guide through every aspect of the CLT. Each chapter is dedicated to a specific question type that you’ll find on the exam, with step-by-step explanations and examples to illustrate the skills and strategies you’ll need. You’ll also find a wealth of practice questions that mirror the structure and content of the actual test. By working through these sections, you’ll get hands-on experience with the types of questions you’ll face and learn tips for approaching each one strategically. Our goal is to equip you with the tools to think deeply, read critically, and reason effectively.
Feel free to explore this course at your own pace. Be sure to work through the course as prompted, starting with the textbook and continuing to practice problems and exams. Following the prompts with consistent, daily investment of time will yield great results! Remember, practice is key! With each question you tackle and each text you analyze, you’re building skills that go beyond the test and will serve you well in both your academic and personal life. We’re here to help you succeed, and we’re excited to see all that you’ll achieve. Welcome again to the Achievable CLT Online Course!
