The Problem
It is difficult for students and parents to prepare for these
Entrance Examinations. Due to the
competitive nature of these tests, it is essential to set up regular practice
sessions and improve one's skills gradually. Parents need as much guidance in
this area as they can possibly get, and currently this guidance and support is
not easy to come by.
Who should join SelectiveTests?
Students, and parents of students, who have decided to prepare
for these tests. It is important to understand that
involvement of parents is an absolute MUST in this process. SelectiveTests may
be used to supplement tuitions and private tutoring or as an addition to a
self-study program. SelectiveTests would also be helpful to students Grade 5
through 7 who simply desire to improve their ability in the offered subjects.

| When should I signup? |
Given the competitiveness of the entrance examination, students
often begin preparation well in advance. For the Year 7 test,
most students begin sometime during grade 5. For the Year 5 test, students
often begin in grade 4.

|
|
| There is less than 6 months left to prepare. Is it too late for me
to get started? |
No! While many students begin preparation a year in advance,
successful students have begun with much less time. SelectiveTests will help
you use your time efficiently by helping you identify areas to focus on.
