Yes, My DS also found Maths hard, but he attempted all.

In Maths test according to my DS "one question was almost impossible to answer" he was ok with the rest. I am not going to say exactly what they had to do in the English test, but I'm afraid my DS made a 'meal of it'! He had 30 minute to spare and didn't bother adding the most important details! Oh dear!

My DS found the mathematics quite challenging although he is quite good at maths. Struggled with at least 5 questions even though attempted all questions. Found the creative writing easy.

My ds found them both quite difficult, Maths is his strong point but he left a few questions, whether or not he spent too much time on a few difficult ones I don't know. English he found hard too but English isn't his strong point. I don't think he will have got through, but we have a great local secondary that we fell in love with so we almost pulled him out of the second stage but decided to let him have a go. But we won't be disappointed if doesn't get through, he's put a lot of hard work in and am really proud of him whatever the outcome. Wallington on Saturday, then its all over. Yay.

My DS thought he "survived" Maths - I expected it to be hard and was using KS3 materials up to Level 8 in anticipation. But yes, 2 of the questions were challenging he said.
For English, again not something we practiced - it just so happened that I covered it with him towards the end and he said he was glad I did.
By the way, interestingly "htm123" - we actually overheard a boy on the way back telling his dad "...I had 30 minutes to spare in English" !
