How to prepare

Worked solutions are most useful when compared against your own working, not just the final answer — this shows whether a wrong answer came from a method error or a careless slip.

Since Edutest has no Abstract Reasoning section (unlike ACER and AAS), you can spend that time on Numerical and Verbal Reasoning instead if Edutest is your only scholarship test.

Which schools use Edutest?

More than 150 independent schools across Australia, plus selected NSW selective schools for Year 8 to Year 11 lateral entry. Each school sets its own test date and scholarship conditions.

Can I sit Edutest for multiple schools?

Yes. Each school runs its own sitting, so you can apply to multiple schools on different dates without restriction.

Does Edutest include Abstract Reasoning?

No. EduTest covers five sections — Verbal Reasoning, Numerical Reasoning, Reading Comprehension, Mathematics, and Written Expression. Abstract Reasoning is part of ACER and AAS tests, not EduTest.

Are worked solutions included with every question?

Yes. Every sample question includes a full worked solution — select an answer to reveal the explanation instantly, free, with no signup.
