What the entrance test covers

St Joseph's College's entrance test has two multiple-choice, age-standardised papers: 1. Verbal Reasoning — logical thinking, use of English language and vocabulary. 2. Non-Verbal Reasoning — interpreting visual information, pattern logic and problem-solving. No English or maths curriculum papers. A standardised score around the published threshold (historically 105) meets the academic standard; the school's oversubscription criteria (including Catholic faith categories) then determine priority for its 150 Year 7 grammar places. Test in September of Year 6, results in October.
