Suzanne Cory yr 10 entry 2026
9 days later
:): I just had good enough score to not need one. Prob scored like top 1% in mathematics or something. The writing style is a lot easier because they give WAYYY more time, instead of 20mins for persuasive and narrative each, you have 5 mins planning and 30mins writing for either a narrative or persuasive.

I think 26-30 spots were available for year 10 entry 2025, around 400ish tried out for it. I barely remember anything from my writing prompt, only that it was a narrative, had a quote and two pictures we had to implement in the story. One picture had a locomotive moving over a valley and the other picture was two individuals with raincoats and backpacks walking with their backs only shown, the quote had something to do with mystery of the unknown or something. They don't expects a specific word count, but they just want a solid and detailed story. In my opinion I would aim for 400-500 words. There are some new topics in the math test, but it was very small amount, and they were basic year 10 topics not complex. Majority of the math test was easy algebra, the main thing that messed people up for the test was prob time management.
.. Can I ask about verbal reasoning, numerical and reading comp? Like how were they? Do the tests similar to past experiences of ppl about Edutest?
Also, if I'm not very good at writing but I score high in other areas, will there still be a chance? Like I'm kinda weak at writing and prob I'll just get average.
