Mirror questions?
Posted: Sun Jul 20, 2008 4:03 pm
Hi, we've recently come across 'mirror' questions for the first time, and wondered if these come up in Bucks 11+.
These are code type questions, eg
If the code for HARD is SZIW, what does WLLI mean?
I gather the way to answer these is to write the alphabet backwards under itself (doesn't work too well in this font!):
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
ZYXWVUTSRQPONMLKJIHGFEDCBA
so WLLI IS DOOR
A recent practice paper we have done had three of these, but it is the first time we have seen them. Can anyone advise if they occur in Bucks papers?
Many thanks for your help!
