Greek Language and Comprehension
Diagnose your current Greek level by completing one full-length reading-comprehension and grammar diagnostic under timed conditions and recording your error types.

Your checkpoint
A dated diagnostic report listing your score per section, your top five recurring error categories, and a 60-entry vocabulary log.
Greek Language and Comprehension
Complete four timed reading passages (one per session) and mark every question you answered from guesswork rather than textual evidence.
Draft two short formal Greek texts (a 120-word report and a 120-word formal letter) using correct register and connector phrases.

Your checkpoint
Two corrected written samples plus a table of 20 context-vocabulary items with the deciding clue for each.
Cyprus Constitution, Law and Citizen Rights
Map the structure of the Cyprus Constitution (fundamental rights, separation of powers, the offices of the Republic) into a one-page diagram from memory, then check and correct it.
Summarise in your own words the core citizen rights (equality, liberty, fair trial, expression, assembly, property) and name the article area each belongs to.
Explain, in writing, how a law is challenged before the Supreme Court and what administrative recourse means.

Your checkpoint
A one-page from-memory constitutional map plus an error log of at least 40 answered items.
Cyprus Constitution, Law and Citizen Rights & Police and Fire Service Organisation and Duties
Write a 300-word plain-Greek summary of the main police duties (prevention, patrol, investigation, public assistance) and the limits placed on police powers.
Compare police and fire service command structures and rank hierarchy in a two-column table built from official public information.
Describe the citizen's obligations during a police check (identification, questioning, arrest, detention limits) in a checklist.

Your checkpoint
A two-column police/fire structure table plus a citizen-rights-during-police-contact checklist of at least 10 points.
Police and Fire Service Organisation and Duties & General Knowledge and Current Affairs
Outline the fire service's prevention, rescue and firefighting duties and the safety rules for the public in an emergency.
Build a timeline of 15 current Cypriot public-affairs facts (institutions, offices, recent institutional changes) each with a source and date.
Practise 20 scenario questions on inter-agency cooperation and emergency call handling, writing the correct sequence of actions.
Summarise one week of Cypriot news in 200 words of Greek, focusing on public safety and governance.
Your checkpoint
A sourced 15-item current-affairs timeline plus a 200-word Greek news summary.
Logical Reasoning and Numerical Ability
Solve 40 numerical problems (percentages, ratios, averages, unit conversion, distance/speed/time) under a 60-minute timer and record time per item.
Complete 30 logical-reasoning sets (sequences, syllogisms, odd-one-out, spatial rotation) and write the reasoning rule for each type.
Build a one-page formula sheet covering percentage change, weighted averages and rate problems, then use it on a fresh 20-item set.
Review every error and re-solve it without notes until correct twice.
Your checkpoint
A timed 40-item numerical test score sheet with per-item timing and a completed formula sheet.
Health, Safety and First Aid & Information Technology and Digital Skills
Demonstrate the correct sequence for adult CPR, recovery position and choking response by writing a step list and rehearsing it aloud without notes.
Rank 12 emergency scenarios (bleeding, burns, fracture, heatstroke, fainting) by first action and justify each ranking.
Complete 25 IT items on file management, spreadsheets, email security and passwords, and correct every error.
Write a short protocol for handling a data-protection-sensitive request, naming the principles you apply.
Your checkpoint
A one-page first-aid action card (CPR, choking, bleeding, burns) plus a corrected 25-item IT quiz.
Greek Language and Comprehension & Logical Reasoning and Numerical Ability & Cyprus Constitution, Law and Citizen Rights
Sit two full mixed mock exams under real timing and score each domain separately.
Re-teach your five weakest topics from earlier weeks by writing a half-page explanation for each without notes.
Re-drill only the error-log items from weeks 1-7 until you reach 90% accuracy.
Plan exam-day logistics: timing per section, order of answering, and a checklist of documents and rules.
Your checkpoint
Two scored mock exams with a domain-by-domain comparison table and a written exam-day plan.
Milestones
Week 2: You can summarise an unseen 250-word formal Greek text in three accurate Greek sentences within 10 minutes, and your reading diagnostic score has improved by at least 10 percentage points over week 1.
Week 4: You can reproduce the constitutional structure diagram from blank paper with no more than two omissions, and score at least 70% on a 40-item constitutional-law set.
Week 6: You finish a 40-item numerical test within 60 minutes at 75% or better, and can name the reasoning rule for each logic item type you missed.
Week 8: Both mock exams are complete, every domain is at or above 70%, and no domain sits more than 15 points below your best domain.
