Ive tried to list the types absent in test 1 and based on that

Codes are the scoring types...unless they make silly errors that is.
And of course not to forget the infamous type Z.

Yes I read that the standard is close to Walsh/ Daughtrey so can be difficult.
DC felt yday was ok. Timing was perfect. But the comments were different when asked at different times :lol:
Remark was that the standard of qstns was high but it was the types done at home so able to do it.
I cant seem to get my mind off any silly mistakes :x

Glad that it went well.
If it is maths based, my DS normally is ok... but keeps rushing too much making silly mistakes at times. My DS finished paper 1 in around 40 mins so got good time to revise and spot mistakes. God only knows how many he didn't spot!! :(
Well all this will be over in less than 24 hrs!!

Timing was the same....finished around 40 mins and got spare time to go through. But dont know if any mistakes were corrected or rightly done ones were turned the other way around :x
But at least it wasn't a rushed paper thankfully.
Well! It all ends for them in another 24 hours(already planned for trick-o-treat :lol: ). But for me it's a month more of sheer torture :roll:

Please refrain from posting details of the test.

There are future sittings next month.

With regard to Maths questions it is a myth that one paper is more "maths" based than the other. There are 4 number questions, 2 will appear in the first test, the other 2 will appear in the second test. The same applies to the code questions 2 in paper 1 and 2 in paper 2.

Sorry Patricia.
I thought this was the end of the tests for this year.
Will be careful.

In addition the same tests are used for children moving into the area over the current academic year.

Perhaps next time you could help us by hitting the report button, which may have resulted in the posts being found earlier.
