Frequently asked questions
What does Year 7 NAPLAN test?
Year 7 NAPLAN assesses Reading, Writing, Conventions of Language (spelling, grammar and punctuation) and Numeracy. PrepPath has practice across all of these at the Year 7 level.
How is Year 7 NAPLAN different from primary school?
Year 7 is the first secondary-school NAPLAN, with more demanding numeracy (algebra, ratios, geometry) and denser reading passages. PrepPath's Year 7 questions reflect that increased difficulty.
How should a Year 7 student prepare?
Consistent practice across all four strands, with careful attention to the worked explanations, is the most effective approach. The AI Tutor helps when a particular method isn't clicking.
Is PrepPath free for Year 7 practice?
Yes — you can practise up to 20 questions a day for free. PrepPath Premium removes the daily limit and unlocks unlimited practice, the AI Tutor and full progress history.

No. All PrepPath questions are independently created in the style of NAPLAN. PrepPath is not affiliated with ACARA and does not use official exam papers.
