Selective School Entry Requirements

Selective School Entry Database is a community driven initiative to collect percentiles
from students who have completed the Selective Test.

This database allows for some* transparency for parents who want to greater understand
what percentiles are required to gain entry to a Selective School.

The marks within this database are verified as best as possible, however at times there may be discrepancies.

*A student's raw score may be lower compared to someone who is also in the same percentile. Percentiles are dependent on the performance of the entire cohort. In years with particularly strong cohorts, even high-achieving students may be in a lower percentile.

How to read this table:

Year - Entry year to a selective high school
Numbers - The numbers are the bands that the student achieved.

Find the NSW Department of Education's guide on Selective Test performance bands here.

The outcome is according to the initial release of the results and not where the reserve list is currently at.
