What is Selective Writing?

This platform is a dedicated training tool for the writing component of the NSW Selective High School Placement Test. We provide timed practice sessions across all major genres to simulate the real exam environment.

How is my writing marked?

Your submitted writing is analyzed by a sophisticated AI system (powered by models from OpenAI). The AI has been trained to assess your work based on key criteria like structure, language, genre conventions, and effectiveness, similar to the real exam's rubric. It provides a score and detailed feedback to help you identify areas for improvement.

Important: The AI feedback is a powerful guide for practice and learning, but it is not an official score and does not guarantee performance on the actual test.

How does the 30-minute timer work?

Once you begin a practice session, a 30-minute timer starts, just like in the real exam. If you finish early, you can submit your work manually. If the timer runs out, your work will be submitted automatically to ensure you get used to the time pressure.

My submission is 'Processing...'. What does that mean?

When you submit your writing, it is sent to our AI for analysis. This process can take anywhere from 30 seconds to a couple of minutes, especially for longer texts. The "Processing..." status will automatically change to "Feedback Ready" once the analysis is complete. You can refresh the dashboard to see the latest status.

How do I manage my subscription or trial?

You can manage all aspects of your account, including your subscription plan, billing details, and trial status, from your Dashboard or Account page once you are logged in. Contact us if any issues arise at info@easycodingcollege
