Pen or Pencil?

Post by bookworm »

This sounds totally insane but I have received the Medway letter with instructions for the 11+ exam. My questions are:
Do you take your own pen? Do you HAVE to write in pen for the english?
Do you take your own pencils?

Any advice from last years 11 plussers would be useful. :oops:

It is best to do the English writing in pen, take your oen and a spare, I do not believe they supply.

Pencil of course for the Maths and Verbal so it can be rubbed out well (take a good one!) as they are electronically marked so all trace must be gone.

Take all and spares in a clear plastice bag and see you there! We are at Rainham Mark.

Thanks Anne42, I too received that letter, but I read that you needed to bring pen and pencils in bag, but other mums read that you only needed to bring pen, pencils provided.

:shock:

Maybe each centre is different , would seem a bit odd though , but hey ,the whole system is a bit odd !
