Has SW Herts exam format changed?
Hi,
Can anyone on the forum confirm whether the exam format will be changing for entry to the consortium schools in 2017?
It still appears to be CEM English. But no move towards CEM for the Maths paper it seems?
Is that correct?

Re: Has SW Herts exam format changed?
We will find out in a few weeks time when the application form appears.
They have moved from sharing the same date with DAO (which is CEM English) onto CEM Super Saturday where the same exam is sat all over the country. It seems likely that they would go 100% CEM. Why continue with two suppliers when one will do?
You try asking the admissions officer for the school you are interested in. I would very much like to hear the answer. DG

We have the answer now. SW Herts is keeping the same Maths and VR format as last year.
The VR is still the same as DAO but on a different date so those who want to sit both will have to sit the CEM for DAO at SW Herts as it is the same paper and you can't sit twice. DG

Does same CEM mean just comprehension, antonyms,synonyms, and cloze?

And Shuffled Sentences and possibly odd word out. But the ones you mentioned are always the big one, though there was no comprehension in the SW Herts?DAO CEM last year.
This was not a surprise for DAO as they have their own comprehension but I do think SW Herts should have a comprehension section so we may see one this year. DG
