Confused about types of VR paper - please help!

Post by busybee »

All
I am confused what different types of papers are and which one should I be focusing on.
Bond/NFER/NELSON/ATHEY/Morey House etc.
We are sitting the Parmiters/Watford exams.
Also, what types of questions (again so many confusing types on numbers and codes).
Sorry to bother you but you all are so experienced!
Thx in advance.

My son sat the tests last year and we worked on the Bond books initially and then over the last 6 weeks looked at actual test papers from Bond, Nfer/GL/Letts and Athey in strict timed conditions and worked on checking techniques for accuracy.

We did this to give him exposure to a wide variety of question types as I wasn't sure what sort of questions would come up.

Have you looked at the sticky at the top of the Herts forum? That's a good source of info about the tests.

Is your child sitting the tests in a few weeks or next year or later?
