You do not need to live near Parramatta to get serious, structured selective preparation. Whether you are in Sydney's outer suburbs, a regional town or rural NSW, our online tools bring exam-accurate practice, instant feedback and proper analytics straight to your kitchen table — on your family's schedule.

Online prep suits self-motivated students and busy families who value flexibility, instant marking and a lower one-off cost. Everything mirrors the real test, so the format itself never becomes the obstacle.

How online prep works

  1. 1

    Start with the free tier. Sit practice tests in Reading, Maths and Thinking Skills to get comfortable with the format — no card required to begin.

  2. 2

    Practise in the real format. Work timed papers that mirror the NSW Department of Education digital interface, so test day feels familiar.

  3. 3

    Mark instantly and review. Every question is marked on the spot with step-by-step explanations, turning each mistake into a lesson.

  4. 4

    Follow your adaptive schedule. On the Complete bundle, a weekly plan refreshes each Monday and targets the areas that need work.

  5. 5

    Track progress against the cohort. See your percentile versus the NSW cohort and time-per-question buckets to know exactly where to focus next.

AI tools and analytics that guide study

The Complete bundle includes Testy Coach for on-demand help, an unlimited LearningHub for targeted skill-building, WritingHub marking on Content, Creativity, Organisation and Language, and a percentile against the NSW cohort. Together they turn raw practice into a clear plan, so you always know what to work on next.
