Which Trial Exams are the best to use?

Hey guys just wondering which Trial exam companies are good?
My teachers keeps telling us STAV are the best but NEAP and INSIGHT are not that good at all with many errors.
How about Focus, TSFX and CSE? has anybody done them?
Thanks :)

I found tsfx to be a bit irrelevant and out of the scope of study design at times. Haven't heard of focus, but CSE was good. STAV and NEAP are the best IMO.

Can I order the STAV exams on my own or does my school have to order?

I think for STAV, they restrict it to schools.

The order forms are here: http://www.sciencevictoria.com.au/stavpublishing/trialExams.html

The STAV exams are pretty cheap though, $4 per paper, so it should be easy enough to convince your school to purchase them if your teacher hasn't already considered it (STAV only send out hardcopy exam booklets I'm pretty sure too, I think the 'electronic copy' link there is referring to the form)

Lisachem, would definitely not recommend it to anyone, personally I did not find it relevant and useful but that's just my own opinion, tsfx is great! comparable to vcaa exams!
