After year 7, it depends on the selective school but it is much more competitive for 8,9,10 as normally spots only open if a student in that year leaves (but a large number of spots often open for y11 entrance) and involves submission of like a portfolio which encompasses naplan results extracurriculars etc. Most of the time it also requires another external assessment like the edutest, and I know that some schools even require essays for entrance.

The best selective girl school depends on what you're looking for in a school, since obviously if its just pure academics then it would easily be Hornsby, North Sydney and Sydney girls anyways (there's not really that many female only selective schools anyways). But a side note the selective co-ed schools 50/50 gender split is probably something that should be taken into account.
