Key takeaways
- Slots left is counted per batch.
- Early bird pricing comes from the programme.
- Lecturer pay follows recorded hours.
- Margin is measured per batch, not per month.
A review centre earns everything it will earn in the three months before a board exam, and spends most of it on lecturers who are paid by the hour. The margin therefore depends on two numbers that nobody usually writes down: how full each batch is, and how many lecturer hours that batch consumed. ReviewDesk PH records both against the same batch.
A batch has slots
Every batch records its programme, schedule, room and number of slots. Enrolled counts the enrolments against it and slots left is the difference.
That figure is what an enrolment officer should be quoting on the phone, and it is what tells a centre when to open a second batch.
Two prices, one rule
The programme carries both a regular fee and an early bird fee. An enrolment marked Early Bird takes the lower one automatically.
This prevents the most common leak in a review centre, which is an early bird price honoured after the deadline and then discounted again at the counter.
Lecturers are paid by the hour
Each session records the subject, lecturer, hours and rate, and the session cost follows. Every lecturer's hours taught and total pay accumulate from those sessions.
Attendance is marked per reviewee per session, which gives a present count and an honest picture of who is still coming.
Mock exams and the batch result
Mock exam scores become percentages with a Passing, Borderline or Needs work rating, which is the list a centre uses to offer extra sessions.
Batch margin subtracts the lecturer cost and the batch's handouts and mock exam expenses from the tuition billed, so a small batch with a well-paid lecturer is visible as a decision rather than a surprise.

Frequently asked questions
Can reviewees pay by instalment?
Yes. Record each payment against the enrolment; the balance and payment status follow, and unpaid balances appear on the dashboard.
How do I handle a reviewee who transfers batches?
Set the enrolment status to Transferred and create a new enrolment in the new batch, so each batch's count stays correct.
Does it host online classes?
No. It records batches, enrolments, sessions, attendance, scores and money. Delivery stays on whatever platform you already use.
Does this replace official records?
No. No PRC registration or examination application, no online classroom, video hosting or quiz delivery, no automatic item analysis, no student portal, and no issuance of certificates of completion.
