Singapore BTT study plan

Singapore BTT · Give each week a clear focus.

8 weeks · About 6 hours per week

Week 1

Road signs and road markings

Classify every sign by shape and colour (circle = regulatory, triangle = warning, rectangle = informational) and state what each shape signals to a driver
Name and describe at least 40 common signs from written descriptions alone, without pictures
Separate prohibition signs (red ring) from mandatory signs (blue circle) and explain the driving action each demands
Describe the meaning of double white lines, broken white lines, continuous yellow lines, zig-zag lines, yellow box junctions and chevron markings

A hand-written 40-card sign-and-marking flashcard set, self-quizzed twice with at least 90% correct on the second pass

Week 2

Explain what a driver must do at a yellow box junction, a stop line and a give-way line, and in what order priority is decided
Sequence the traffic light phases including flashing amber, green arrow and pedestrian signals, and state the correct response to each
Apply marking rules to junction, bus lane and no-parking scenarios by writing the correct action for 10 described situations
Recall the rules on pedestrian crossings, school zones and their associated markings

A 30-question timed self-test on signs, markings and signals scored at 85% or better, with every wrong answer rewritten as a corrected rule

Week 3

State the default speed limits for ordinary roads, school zones and expressways, and list the conditions that require slowing below them
Explain lane discipline, overtaking rules and which lane must be kept on a multi-lane road and expressway
Describe the give-way rules at uncontrolled junctions, T-junctions and roundabouts, including who yields to whom
List the offences and penalties for drink driving, using a mobile phone while driving, and failing to wear a seatbelt

A one-page numeric reference sheet of all limits, distances and penalties, plus a 20-question recall test scored at 90% or better

Week 4

Explain how the demerit points system works, including suspension thresholds and how points are cleared
Describe safe following distance using the two-second rule and adjust it for rain, night and heavy vehicles
Identify the first three actions to take when a hazard appears ahead (mirror check, ease off accelerator, position for escape)
Summarise the rules on emergency vehicles, road works and breakdowns on the expressway

A 50-question mixed mock covering domains 1 and 2 under timed conditions, scored at 85% or better

Week 5

Scan for hazards using a written look-far-ahead, mirror-and-blind-spot routine applied to 10 described road scenes
Explain how stopping distance changes on wet roads, at night and when following a heavy vehicle, and state the adjusted gap
Describe correct responses to a tailgater, a pedestrian stepping out, a cyclist wobbling ahead and a vehicle emerging from a side road
List the risks of fatigue, alcohol and medication and state the correct decision in each case

Fifteen scenario questions written out with a chosen action and a one-line justification for each, reviewed against the official rule for every item

Week 6

Demonstrate knowledge of mirror and blind-spot checks in the correct order before signalling, changing lane and turning
Explain when and how to use headlights, hazard lights, horn and fog lights, and when each is prohibited
Describe the correct hand signals for slowing down, stopping, turning left and turning right
Identify the pre-drive checks a driver should complete before moving off (mirrors, seat, gear, handbrake, surroundings)

A 50-question mock covering domains 1 to 3 scored at 85% or better, plus a written blind-spot and signal sequence checklist

Week 7

Explain how ABS, brake fade, aquaplaning and skidding affect control and state the correct driver response to each
Describe how to check tyre pressure, tread depth, brake and engine fluids, and what to do when a warning light appears
Explain gear selection and engine braking for downhill and wet-road driving
Describe the correct actions after a breakdown or minor accident on an expressway, including warning other traffic

A full 50-question timed mock across all four domains scored at 85% or better, with a mistake log categorised by domain

Week 8

Re-drill only the categories with the highest error counts from the week 7 mistake log until each is error-free
Complete three full-length timed mocks under exam conditions with no reference material
Recite the numeric facts (speed limits, following distances, drink-driving limits, demerit thresholds) from memory
Simulate the exam-day routine: arrival timing, identification requirements and question pacing

Three consecutive full mocks each scored at 90% or better, with a written error log showing no repeated mistake category

Week 2: Score 85% or better on a 30-question signs, markings and signals test with no reference material

Week 4: Score 85% or better on a timed 50-question mock covering domains 1 and 2, and recite all speed limits and following distances from memory

Week 6: Score 85% or better on a timed 50-question mock covering domains 1 to 3, and list the blind-spot and signal sequence without notes

Week 8: Score 90% or better on three consecutive full-length mocks across all four domains, with no error category repeating
