Australian Cooperative Entry Program (ACEP)

The skills the ACEP are examining are learned over a candidate's lifetime both in and out of school so short term training for the tests is unlikely to improve performance. Your best preparation is to read widely and think critically.

ACER has made available three (3) products to help students become more familiar with the style and content of questions on the ACEP test. Two products are printed booklets that will be delivered to candidates via the mail. The third is an online interactive test, where students login to the internet and complete a test. This version of the test cannot be printed out.

NEW! Practice questions for iPad
