Hi all,
I am considering in applying for Normanhurst boys high school (selective Transfer Year 8 to Year 9) in 2024. I have a few questions about the test.

(1) Type of test: HAST or Edutest ?
(2) Literacy test: multiple choice questions or short answer questions?
(3) Any writing test? type of test?
(4) Any other experience to share?

thank you.

1) when i did my test for y11 it was not hast or edutest and they had a math and eng section. I think y9 transfer test also follows this.
2) english section had short answer
3) english also had a creative piece
4) i think y8 --> 9 is much harder than getting a y11 spot because they accept a limited amount of ppl for junior years so dont get discouraged just sweat y10

Do you still remember the english test format for the short answer questions? I'm applying for year 11 this year.

Hi, my brother is preparing for the Normanhurst test for entry into Year 11. Does any students have any prep resources or any thing useful they could provide that helped them excel in the exam. Any information or even tips/advice would be useful. All I know is that there is a Maths and English section based on the Year 10 and early Year 11 content however not exactly sure what topics I could tell my brother to prepare for. Anything you have that could be in handy, please shoot a DM

FYI: I have graduated from highschool a few years back so if yall have any questions or anything u want to ask, I am more than happy to talk to you and help you out :)
