Hi all,

Can I ask to all mums/dads whose children sat for CSSE or will sit this September, at this time, just only few weeks from the exam, how your DCs faired with the speed in completing CSSE past papers? My DS is still struggling a bit in completing the maths paper. Now that logical reasoning will be added to it, I am bit worried about this.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the link, but I would like real replies from parents on how far their DCs are upto at this present moment on speed. I appreciate the suggestion on how to improve. But that's not what I am after.

Thanks for the reply.

Yes-speed seems to be an issue for the maths much more than the English. DD has done a couple of mocks and has finished them (apart from one of those 'find the product value' a x b x c questions which was only one mark so she left it and didn't have time to back to it! I think that's the trick-if short on time, leave the ones with 1 mark and loads of working out till last.
