What Our Students Say

Hear from students who have experienced our platform

"The platform is great! Big Brain has the potential to be a one-stop shop when it comes to exam prep. Unlike many others, it caters for both entry into Selective Schools and JMSS. Therefore, I am able to use Big Brain for both my exams."

Jeff L

Glen Waverley Secondary College

"I was a bit worried about the cost at first, but when I compared Big Brain to other exam prep options, it's actually heaps cheaper and you get way more practice questions. Definitely worth it for anyone prepping for selective school tests!"

Leo W

"'Big Brain has been a huge help in selective entrance preperation. Even though it's constantly improving, the giant question bank and AI support makes the tool great for having loads of practice to be more familiar with competetive exam methods."
