When you are done with the National Benchmark Test, your NBT results shall be received by the universities in about 21 days when the test has ended. This is according to the National Benchmark Test Schedule.
The scores are then uploaded into your NTB account. Once you sat for the exams, you will have an account. Your result will stay in your account for one month, this is around 12: 00 PM per the scheduled time and date by the NBT
It is done like this so that if you wish to sit for the exams again, you have at least 6 weeks to the next sitting. This is enough for preparation.
For how long do results remain valid
Even though per the NBT Project office, your results are valid for three years, you should consult the institution for their arrangements. Remember, each institution of higher learning in South Africa has its uniques scale for the NBT results.
Can I have access to my score?
To have access to your scores, you have to log in to the National Benchmark Test site.
To log in, you shall have to use your ID as the username and then remember the password that was chosen by you during your registration. This will give you access to your results.
Alternatively, you can send a request to the National Benchmark Test office through [email protected] about one month after the test is over.
The scores you made will be obtainable at leat 12:00 PM per the given day and time on the Benchmark Test timetable. If you have any bill not yet paid, you cannot have your result.
But if you don’t owe and yet can have your score, do send an inquiry to the NBT office.
How can my university of interest have my scores?
After you have applied to any university, you will be on their list as a prospective student. As applicants are being selected, these universities will request for your results from the National Benchmark Test office. The institution will only have your result if they demand it.
