i got into macrob in year 10, so pretty much the same thing for year 10 nossal.
what i would suggest is that first off, you need to score in the top 15 students. this is because they have such limited scope for new students, that they can only invite 15 people to an interview. pls dont get intimidated by this, because the exam is not as scary as acer. for reference, i got 4 sups and 1 aa, but its obviously best if u aim for 5 sups.

i would suggest that u do loads of practise exams under time conditions, as edutest places a lot of emphasis on time management, so you have to do simple questions fast. in maths, if you go through a year 9 and year 10 textbook, your pretty well prepared. for nr you have to do reasoning style questions. to help w this i did brainworks for 8 months, as well as 1-1 tutoring, in which they would go through exam style questions. a great website is indiabix cuz they have great questions and worked solutions, which is what my 1-1 tutor went through w me. reading comprehension is basic, u just have to be familiar w literary devices and types of language, as well as being a fast reader. in vr, u really need a strong vocab. if u dont u will rlly struggle. i did 1100 words u need to know on quizlet to build my vocab, as well as noting vocab in school novels. in writing, u gotta be able to concoct a unique story, and also have a good vocab.

hope this is helpfulll

Dosanjh (NHS) Nossal is hardest to get into year 10 entry, then macrob. Mhs always has a full class of students available to get into year 10 entry(25 spots I think), same with Suzanne cory. The reason MGHS and NHS are the hardest is because they rely on vacancies from year 9 students wanting to leave, meaning you have to be like top 20(out of hundreds of applicants which is insane, like 4 sups minimum) to get into a waiting list and depending on your ranking and how many students leave you can receive an offer. Though MHS and SCHS are still quite difficult, most people have already got no chance to get into those schools if they haven't built up their extra curriculars from previous years, MHS likes sports and SCHS prefers the arts, but they both seek all rounders of excellence.

𝖉𝖍𝖗𝖚𝖛𝖎❦ Sorry but I don't remember much from the test, and all I really did to study was some spare practice test my friend gave me, and did some(if not all) math topics from an ICEM year 9 book. I got some vocab from a book called "1100 words you should know" and read more complex literature to help me with RC. The only question I remember from the test was "what is the length?, where the width is 17cm and the area is 153cm²" from the math section.
