Title: Advice for selective school admission tests!!
Post by: A.dolan on April 01, 2018, 02:45:22 pm
Hi everyone,
In about 2 months I'll be taking the selective school admission tests and I am very anxious. I have applied for Nossal (for year 9) and am currently going to two tuitions: Henderson and James An College. It would be extremely helpful if anyone would be able to give me any useful tips. There are also a few specific things which I am very curious about:
 - Roughly how many people will be taking the exams for Nossal?
 - What were some topics which occurred in the tests that I should definitely learn?
 - What type of results are actually needed to get into Nossal? (superiors, high averages, etc)
 - If a specific amount of superiors are needed, how many?
 - How should I be preparing for the tests?
 - How can I stand out in my writing pieces?
I would greatly appreciate it if these questions were answered and any extra tips were give for the exam.
Thank you!
