Fast approaching countdown for the tests! First test is VR (I think) on the 17th September with the next test NVR on the 24th September. Does anyone have any last minute tips or advice to help my daughter this last week (I am more nervous than she is). Any tips about speed or how to work out certain types of questions quickly would be useful. (NFER tests for QEHS Gainsborough) Thanks to everyone for your advice and support so far

Good luck for your daughter - I am in Gainsborough too. Nerve racking stuff isn't it!

Thanks can't wait for it to be over. She thinks she has done ok on the VR so fingers crossed for the NVR Good luck to you as well!! Fingers crossed eh

So was anyone else up early on exam day with a bad tummy and nausea?!

I just feel on edge all the time, if I could do it for her to save her the trauma I would. Although at the minute she seems quite confident. Its the unknown and not knowing what school to pick if she doesn't pass. It is a tight turnaround between results day and picking schools (on the bright side at least we now know in advance before picking schools).
