Student Testimonial
What's Included
We prepare students with two full-length simulated exams, scheduled two weeks apart, featuring questions specifically designed to replicate the feel, style, and challenge of the Victorian Selective Schools Exam.
Immediately after the exam, you'll receive your child's corrected papers, including full feedback on their writing pieces. Students will also be provided with a printed post exam booklet with fully worked solutions for every question and a sample essay response to help them clearly understand where improvements can be made.
To maximise learning while the exam is still fresh, students will also gain access to a three-hour pre-recorded online workshop immediately after the exam. This workshop will walk them through the questions that were most commonly answered incorrectly, helping them identify and strengthen any areas of weakness.
Following each exam, you’ll receive a detailed performance report comparing your child’s results against their peers, helping you better understand their current level. This feedback is designed to highlight key areas for improvement, so your child can fine-tune their preparation. After a two-week review period, they’ll have the opportunity to sit their second mock exam, applying what they've learned for even greater success.
Prism ChatBot: our study chatbot for extra practice questions, hints and feedback. Your child chooses the topic to practise, and Prism guides them step by step instead of handing over answers. Optional, and best used at home with a parent.
Tessa TutorBot: our AI tutor, a talking video avatar on the lesson pages. When your child is stuck, they can talk an idea through with Tessa, who explains one step at a time and asks questions back instead of giving the full answer. Optional, and best used at home with a parent.
As a special bonus, your child will get exclusive access to a video recording of last year’s post-exam feedback session.
This is a unique chance to hear directly from students who’ve been in your child’s shoes—sharing their insights on each section of the exam, discussing what worked for them, the challenges they faced, and how they tackled each question.
This 3-hour recording is packed with:
- Personal strategies from last year’s students
- Time management tips and exam approaches to maximise performance
- Actionable insights to fine
-tune exam strategies and boost confidence
By watching this session, your child will gain valuable lessons from real exam experiences, helping them feel more prepared and confident for their own exam day!

Have Questions? We've Got Answers!
Do I have to bring my printed ticket to the event?
Yes, please bring your ticket on the day
What else should I bring?
Be sure to pack a snack and drink for your child to have during the break. This is a very intensive process and your child will need to feel as comfortable as possible on the day to get the most out of the experience. In the past, students have also found that the exam hall has been quite chilly so pack a light jacket regardless of the weather.
What is the refund policy?
All sales are final. We don't offer any refunds unless required under Victorian consumer law.
The name on the registration/ticket doesn't match the attendee. Is that okay?
Please register using your child's name - make sure you have the correct details for the day.
