Sitting more than one subject?

Most candidates are assigned five or more. At $100 each, your whole set of notes costs a fraction of what the exams themselves do.

All five mandatory subjects for $500, the cost of a single failed resit. Buy only the ones you were assigned. Choose your subjects →

The real question is not whether you can afford $100.

A failed sitting costs $500 to resit, plus three months before you can write again. These notes cost about a fifth of one resit fee. If they prevent a single failed attempt, they have more than paid for themselves five times over. And if you sit your exam using these notes and do not pass, email thencahub@gmail.com and we will send you the updated notes for your resit, free of charge.

Will it cover my subject?

Notes are available now for every NCA subject: the 5 mandatory subjects plus Contract, Family, Evidence, Property, and Civil Procedure. Not sure which subjects you were assigned? The subject predictor can help you work it out.

The Method

Three things
nobody else does.

Every decision came from experiencing what didn't work. Then building the exact opposite.

Short-Form Video Lectures

8–12 minutes per topic. One concept, covered completely. No 2-hour recordings where attention collapses at minute 25. Microlearning is associated with significantly higher completion rates.

Coming soon — free for note buyers on release

Strategic Notes

Under 80 pages per subject of distilled, exam-targeted material. Not a textbook. Every sentence earns its place by serving one purpose: your performance in the exam hall.

Exam-focused only

Answer Templates

The NCA rewards specific analytical structures. Our templates give you the architecture before you see the question. Recognize the question type, and you already know the first four lines of your answer.

The Founder's Story

Built by someone who sat the same exams.

  1. India-qualified lawyer

    Kartik Kumar qualified as a lawyer in India.

  2. A career at UK law firms

    He built his early career at UK law firms: DWF, Eversheds Sutherland, and Keoghs.

  3. Hopcraft v Close Brothers, and a role lost

    Hired as a Legal Executive for motor-finance commission claims, his role ended when the Supreme Court judgment in Hopcraft v Close Brothers reshaped that field and the project wound down. His NCA assessment was already in hand.

  4. One week to build a system

    With one week to prepare for his first NCA exam, he found the standard materials too long and built his own: distilled notes and a framework for every question type.

  5. All five NCA subjects passed

    He passed all five NCA subjects, four of them in under three months.

  6. Certificate of Qualification received

    He completed the CPLED Legal Research and Writing requirement and received the NCA Certificate of Qualification.

  7. Ontario (LSO) Barrister licensing exam

    He passed the Ontario (LSO) Barrister licensing exam, one step in Ontario's lawyer-licensing process.

Questions

Everything you
need to decide.

Yes. Short timelines are exactly what these materials were designed for. Under 80 pages of notes, not 200. Videos under 12 minutes each. Templates that pre-build your answer structure. Someone with one week prepared their first Administrative Law exam using this system. You have more time than that.

Most NCA preparation was built for candidates with unlimited time. The NCA Hub was built under real-time financial pressure, by someone who had no income and had to pass. Everything is filtered through one question: will this help you clear a 50% threshold exam? If the answer is no, it does not appear. We also offer a Readiness Assessment that other NCA prep providers do not.

Yes to both. Professional Responsibility is covered as a full NCA exam subject: notes, templates, practice questions. LRW is a mandatory CPLED course, not an NCA exam, but it sits on the path to qualification. We guide you through it so you know exactly what to expect.

Yes. The textbooks run 169 to 400 pages per subject, written for law students who have years, not weeks. The NCA Hub notes are under 80 pages per subject, written specifically for the NCA challenge exam: a 3-hour, 50%-threshold exam with a specific answer format. The textbooks teach you law. The NCA Hub teaches you how to pass the NCA exam. They are not the same thing.

If you sit your exam using these notes and do not pass, email thencahub@gmail.com. We will send you the updated notes for your resit, free of charge. No conditions. We stand behind the materials.

Yes. Email thencahub@gmail.com before purchasing and we will arrange a payment schedule that works for you. A two-instalment option is also available at checkout.

Your Turn
