The Mac.Robertson Girls' High School (also known simply as Mac.Rob or MGHS) is a government-funded single-sex academically selective secondary day school, in Albert Park, Victoria, Australia. Entry for Mac.Rob, which is operated by the Victorian Department of Education, is by competitive academic examination. It is unique in its status as a statewide provider for girls in Year 9 to Year 12. The equivalent for boys is its brother school, Melbourne High School. Each year, up to 8,000 candidates sit the entrance examination for a total of approximately 960 places available in the four selective entry high schools in Victoria.
