What is the HAST Test?

The HAST program is compiled by the Australian Council for Educational Research (ACER). HAST is designed to differentiate academically gifted children and identifies students who would benefit from accelerated learning and enhancement programs such as Selective High Schools. Some schools use HAST for placement in the High Performing & Gifted Education Programs (also known as Enrichment Programs).

HAST assesses the academic performance of students in the top range of academic achievers. The HAST consists of a series of demanding questions in the subject areas of reading comprehension, mathematical reasoning, abstract reasoning and written expression.

If I could hug the people who made the
questions, I would!

As a parent, I tried one test and found it very challenging. All parents should try it first before pressuring their child for the selective exam. I respect my child's hard work.
