CEM Birmingham exam English Comprehension

Post by catwoman »

Hi
Does anyone know if this exam is multiple choice, my Ds is taking the exam next year.

If it is multi-choice does any1 have any free websites where i can get some multi-choice english comprehension papers, all the books i've seen in waterstones are very costly.

They change the format frequently. With more than a year to go I would just be concentrating on giving him lots of books to read and discussing them with him.

Thanks nostress but he has always been a passionate reader and quite good at comprehension so in the holidays i thought i'd get him to do some comprehension tasks just so he starts to get a feel for how the questions will be structured out.
