Interpret information carefully
ACER-style comprehension can include text, humanities contexts, source material and questions that require judgement.
ACER-style preparation
ACER scholarship practice tests online
ACER-style scholarship preparation is often more focused on mathematical thinking, humanities-style comprehension and reasoning, and written expression. Students should practise interpreting information carefully and explaining ideas clearly.
Strengthen mathematical reasoning
Students should practise multi-step problems, data interpretation, number relationships and unfamiliar mathematical situations.
Write with control
Written expression practice should focus on planning, paragraph control, vocabulary choice and a clear response to the prompt.
