Mac.Rob practice tests for the Mac.Robertson Girls' High Year 10 Edutest exam

Practice tests for the Mac.Rob (The Mac.Robertson Girls' High School) Year 10 entrance exam: what each Edutest paper asks, how long you get, and a free diagnostic to find out where you stand. There is no separate Mac.Rob paper. How the papers are built, where to sit a free diagnostic, and how to use the question bank are on this page. Format, topic lists and the application steps live on the Victorian selective exam guide. The campus is on the Mac.Rob school page.

Big Brain does not host an official Edutest PDF. Official registration and any sample information Edutest publishes lives on Edutest. Timed practice (Edutest-style questions in the question bank, not a downloadable booklet) lives on the platform.

Sit a free diagnostic in the Year 10 Edutest format, then drill the five papers under real timing. Start practice at learn.bigbrain.au/join.

What is specific to Mac.Rob

The Mac.Robertson Girls' High School is the girls' selective school in Melbourne, established in 1934. Searches spell the name several ways, but every spelling leads to one exam. Year 10 entry (current Year 9 students) is the same Edutest five-paper sitting as Melbourne High, Nossal and Suzanne Cory, so a single-sex school does not need a different practice format.

Most students enter at Year 9 through the ACER Selective Entry exam, and Year 10 fills a limited number of extra places. Current Year 10 students can also sit for Year 11 entry, on the same five Edutest papers. Some schools add an interview or a written application after the exam, depending on the school. Dates and fees stay on Edutest and the school. We do not republish them here.

What the practice tests cover

The Year 10 selective exam is five Edutest tests (ACER runs the Year 9 exam). The table matches Big Brain's VIC Selective Year 10 exam record. Topic lists for each paper are on the exam guide. Shared Edutest patterns (how a percentile works, writing timing) are on the Edutest exam guide.

PaperQuestionsTimeWhat to drill
Mathematics6030 minSpeed on year-level maths. About 30 seconds a question.
Numerical Reasoning5030 minPatterns, sequences, and worded number problems.
Verbal Reasoning6030 minVocabulary, analogies, classification, and deduction.
Reading Comprehension5030 minPassages plus sentence correction. Answer from what the text says.
Written Expression2 written15 min eachNo planning or reading time. The paper sets the genre.

Free diagnostic, then the question bank

Start with a diagnostic, not a full mock. A 30 to 45 minute diagnostic on the free diagnostic page maps which of the five papers is costing marks. The sitting mixes speed (Mathematics and Verbal Reasoning) with slower reading and two written pieces. A student who practises their strongest paper first stays busy without improving.

After the diagnostic, timed section practice in the question bank is the method. Mathematics is 60 questions in 30 minutes. Verbal Reasoning is the same pressure with words instead of curriculum. Reading Comprehension is 50 questions in 30 minutes, including sentence correction, so a student who skims the passage and ignores the grammar items drops marks. Written Expression is two pieces of 15 minutes each, with no planning or reading time, and the paper sets the genre. Practise both creative and persuasive on a 15-minute clock so either set style is familiar.

One start URL for the diagnostic and for every later drill in the question bank. No PDF pack. Start practice at learn.bigbrain.au/join.

How to run a practice week

  • One timed mathematics or numerical-reasoning set, then review every miss. Without an error log, students repeat the same mistakes at speed.
  • One verbal-reasoning or reading set, timed. Untimed runs hide the pressure of 60 verbal questions in 30 minutes.
  • Two written pieces, one creative and one persuasive. Stop each at 15 minutes, planning included.
  • A full five-paper mock only once the section times feel ordinary. Starting with full mocks burns stamina before the question types are familiar.

Month-by-month runway stays on the exam guide and the Edutest exam guide. This page is the drills.

Is there a free practice test?

Yes. Sit a free diagnostic in the Year 10 Edutest format, then keep practising the same papers. No credit card. The diagnostic starts at learn.bigbrain.au/join, also linked from the free diagnostic page.

Which papers should I practise?

Mathematics (60 questions, 30 minutes), Numerical Reasoning (50, 30), Verbal Reasoning (60, 30), Reading Comprehension (50, 30), and Written Expression (two tasks, 15 minutes each). Topic lists are on the Victorian selective exam guide.

Is this the same exam as the other Victorian selective schools?

Do Mac.Rob, MacRob and Mac Robertson practice tests differ?

No. They are the same school and the same Year 10 Edutest paper. The search spelling changes. Mathematics, Numerical Reasoning, Verbal Reasoning, Reading Comprehension and Written Expression do not.
