Every exam family, plus skill drills.

Practice tests for NSW Selective, Opportunity Class, Victoria Selective Entry (ACER), HAST and EduTest, alongside focused drills — verbal and non-verbal reasoning, cloze passage, vocabulary, poetry and writing.

Real exam conditions.

Each test is timed and sat in one session in the Braintree Coaching online classroom, so the format and pressure match the real exam.

Scored as you go.

Multiple-choice is marked automatically with worked solutions, and writing tasks come with guidance against the published exam criteria — so your child sees what to revise.

What happens when you start.

The pack opens in our online classroom. Reading a test is free for anyone; starting one needs a free student account, which also saves your child’s progress and results.

The writing assessment

The piece you can’t auto-grade.

Reading and reasoning are easy to score against a key. Writing isn’t — and for many borderline results it’s the section that makes the difference. The writing drills in the free test pack come with guidance against the published exam criteria.

  • Guidance against the published writing criteria: ideas, structure, language and conventions.
  • Specific, in-text pointers — not a vague paragraph of feedback.
  • Example sentences showing a stronger version of what your child wrote.
  • A clear indication of where the piece sits against exam expectations.

SampleWriting feedback report
Illustrative example · Year 6 writing task
Prompt“Write a narrative that begins with the line: The lighthouse hadn’t worked for forty years, but tonight, it flickered.

The wind whistled through the broken windowpanes, carrying with it the smell of salt and rust. Marni pressed her face against the cold glass and watched the beam swing wildly across the cliffs.

Strong opening — sensory detail establishes setting in one line. Reader is grounded.

She was scared but she also was very excited at the same time. Nobody had been here for ages and she could not believe what was happening right now.

Telling, not showing. Try: “Her chest tightened. Forty years of silence — and now this.” Replace “was scared” with the body’s reaction.

The light flickered once more, twice, then steadied. A long shadow stretched down the spiral staircase. Someone — or something — was at the top.

Excellent pacing. Two short sentences then a cliff-hanger. This is the rhythm markers reward in higher-band writing.

Questions parents ask.

The honest answers, including the “what’s the catch” question.

Yes. The Braintree Coaching Australia test pack is free to use — no payment and no card. Your child signs in with a free student account to start a test, which also saves their progress and results. Some families go on to use our paper packs or tutoring afterwards; many just use the free pack. Both are fine with us.

It covers the real Australian selective and scholarship exams — NSW Selective and Opportunity Class placement, Victoria Selective Entry (ACER), HAST and EduTest — plus focused skill drills in verbal and non-verbal reasoning, cloze passage, vocabulary, poetry and writing. We add tests over time, so the classroom is the up-to-date source of what is available.

Reading a test’s overview is open to anyone. Starting a test needs a free student account — free means no cost, with one quick sign-up step. The account lets the online classroom save your child’s answers, scores and progress.

In the Braintree Coaching Australia online classroom at classroom.braintreecoaching.com.au, a separate site from this one. The link opens in a new tab so you do not lose your place here.

Multiple-choice questions are scored automatically, with worked solutions that explain each answer. Writing tasks come with guidance against the published exam criteria, so your child can see how to improve.

Two to three short sessions a week is a sustainable pace. Each test takes roughly 20–45 minutes depending on the section, so it fits a school evening without crowding out homework.
