OC
The Opportunity Class Placement Test decides places in Year 5 and 6 opportunity classes at NSW public primary schools. Children sit it in Year 4, on a computer: Reading, Mathematical Reasoning and Thinking Skills, one after another, with no calculator and no writing.

Start the test
The NSW Department of Education publishes each test's length and time. The mix of questions inside each test follows its three official practice tests. The real maths test gives five choices on every question; most of ours do, and some give four. The real reading test fills its gaps with drop-down lists and by dragging sentences into place; ours asks about each gap as its own question, for the same mark.
