What our
Year 6 Selective Test tutoring students say

The Selective School prep courses have been spot on for Jordan. The practice questions and tips really sharpened his skills and got him ready for the exams, helping his perform at his best when it counted… The focus on analysing texts and writing creatively has not only helped his grades but also made him enjoy English a lot more.

I used to find homework and school work difficult. It took me so much time to get it all done. After joining Matrix, I can keep up with school work a lot quicker.

Thinking Skills courses helped my child build profound knowledge for OC test (especially for Thinking Skills). My child is now attending Selective School Test Preparation course and it has been helpful and nurtured my child’s knowledge for the selective test. Thank you!

Program

Does the Matrix Year 6 Selective School Test tutoring program cover all four sections of the Selective Test?

Logical Reasoning, and
Writing.

When should my child start the Year 6 Selective School Test tutoring?

Students should start preparing at least 12 months before the May test to thoroughly cover all sections of the Selective School Test. At Matrix, Year 4 students start their selective test preparation in October each year to develop mastery in all sections of the test.

Are critical thinking skills same as thinking skills?

No. Thinking skills is one of the sections of the Selective High School Test

The test evaluates students’ critical thinking abilities in these sections:

Reading (or verbal reasoning)
Mathematical reasoning
Thinking skills involving spatial and logical reasoning

The Matrix Selective Preparation course teaches students critical thinking skills for each of these areas.

Does my child need to enrol in English and/or Maths courses as well?

If your child lacks strong foundations in English and/or Maths, it’s highly recommended to undertake the English and/or Maths courses as well.

The Matrix Entrance Test will help you identify your child’s gaps in English, Maths and Critical Thinking.
