The problem

Every prep platform treats your child
like every other child.

Over 5,000 students sit the Victorian selective entry exam each year for just 1,000 places. Yet every preparation tool on the market takes the same approach.

📋

Generic question banks

The same timed mock tests handed to every student regardless of their starting point, their strengths, or what they actually need to work on.

📉

No gap analysis

Platforms tell you a score but not what it means or what to do next. Students practise what they're already good at and avoid what they find hard.

😶

Zero personalisation

Nothing knows what excites your child, what learning style works for them, or how to keep them engaged across twelve months of preparation.

💸

Or expensive tutoring

The alternative is $80–150 per hour for human tutoring — effective but out of reach for most families and unavailable at 6am on a Tuesday.

Our story

Built by a parent who couldn't find what his son needed.

"I went looking for a tool that would meet my son where he was — not where the exam expected him to be. I couldn't find one. So I built it."

OrbitPrep started with one student — a Year 7 boy in Melbourne's west who came to his passion for learning later than most, had some challenges along the way, and decided in Year 8 that he wanted to aim for selective entry.

His father — a data professional with two decades in the Victorian public sector — went looking for a preparation tool built around his son's actual starting point and interests. He couldn't find one. So he built it.

OrbitPrep exists because every child who decides to reach for something ambitious deserves a genuine path to get there.

How it works

Three steps. One plan.
Built for your child specifically.

OrbitPrep begins where your child actually is — not where the exam expects them to be.

1

Start with the diagnostic

A free assessment across all six exam components — verbal reasoning, numerical reasoning, reading, mathematics, creative writing, and analytical writing. No time pressure. No stress. Just an honest picture of where your child is today.

25 minutes · Free · No account needed
2

Get a personalised plan

OrbitPrep's AI engine analyses the results, identifies the specific gaps, and builds a daily 20-minute study plan calibrated to your child's current level. The plan adjusts automatically as they improve — harder when they're ready, supportive when they need it.

Adapts in real time · Interest-themed content
3

Track real progress

A clear dashboard shows exactly where your child stands across every section — in plain language, not raw scores. You'll see what's improving, what still needs work, and whether they're on track for exam day.

Parent dashboard · NAPLAN-equivalent bands

What makes OrbitPrep different

Not the average student.

Every feature in OrbitPrep exists because a real student needed it.

🎯

Adaptive difficulty

Three calibrated levels that automatically adjust based on performance. Never too easy, never overwhelming.

🚀

Interest-anchored content

Questions themed around space, gaming, history, technology, music, or nature — whatever keeps your child engaged.

✍️

AI writing assessment

Detailed feedback on creative and analytical writing — the two sections most platforms ignore completely.

📊

Gap-first planning

The daily plan targets specific weaknesses, not a random rotation of topics. Every session moves the needle.

👨‍👩‍👦

Parent dashboard

Plain-language weekly progress reports. No raw scores — just clear, honest information about where your child stands.
