The ASAT test really helped me in familiarising with the new selective test structure and time frames. The questions were really similar to the real test and they both had the same time limits and questions. I think that the ASAT test was harder than the selective test, giving us experience and reassurance that we were truly prepared. It was good practice and I think that it was beneficial that many people took part in the ASAT tests so that we could roughly see our ranking. Reflecting on my ASAT experience, I have no regrets taking the tests as it was good practice and reassuring to know what I got in ASAT when I sat the Selective Test.

I found the ASAT test quite similar to the real test. The close passage was easier than the real test, and so was the thinking skills.

This was very helpful in preparation for the selective school test. The sessions were managed by staff members just like the real test and it felt like the actual test which helped me familiarise myself with the tension!

The ASAT test was very helpful in preparation for the actual English, Maths and General Ability tests. The test times were very the same. Even the ASAT questions were a bit harder than the actual tests, it was very helpful and beneficial.

The ASAT was a bit harder than the actual tests but that’s always good because it’s preparing me and challenging me further than what we’d actually get. So I was prepared more than I need to be.

The actual test was very similar to the ASAT and I wasn’t feeling nervous because I’ve done the similar tests before. I was feeling really happy as I could let go of my knowledge at the test.
