Hi, in the NFER NVR it does not tell you how much time you need
Does anybody know how much time you need?

Look at the example and see which letter has been circled.......Now do the two practice questions, put your pencils down when you have finnished.

Wait until all the pupils have finished before continuing.

The answers are C and E....You now have 8 minutes to do the 16 numbered questions. Begin now.

The technique is to use the practice time to do the practice questions and also look ahead at visible questions to try and gain some time.

So allow some time for practice questions and then 30 seconds per question on the timed section.

Hi
We discovered from the school last year that although he time for each question was the same, the number of questions per section was different! This threw dc for a while until we got used to doing them in batches of 12 (as it was for us). It would be a good plan to contact your school and find out the format that you need to practice. I ended up making up my own papers by photocopying ones we had already used and pasting them into the right number per section.
Good Luck!
