Recommended VR practice for WCGS/Wilson's

Post by Plum »

Hi

Already posted this on the VR section but it was suggested I try here as well!

Can anybody recommend appropriate VR pactrice books for WCGS / Wilson's. DS has already worked his way through most of the Bond books and I thought would we try something different.

Please advise. Thanks

Hi there.

I would try as many different formats as you can as there is no set format for these papers. We found working through some of the Susan Daughtrey ones useful, the Bond papers ( as opposed to the books), the learning together papers, the tutors and really anything else I could get my hands on. We also got hold of some old Whitgift and Trinity papers. If you have friends doing the exams you can share resources.

A trick I learnt rather late was photocopy all the papers first and then you can give them to your child more than once-you would be amazed how although they recognise that they have seen them before, they don't remember the answers and so still get value out of them.

Good luck
