Is CEM NVR the same as traditional Bond/GL NVR?

Post by sonasona »

Can someone please put me out of my misery but I've been told that CEM NVR is not the same as the Bond/Letts/GL NVR we've been used to over the years?

I'm not sure what this 3D NVR is too, are they nets?

I thought its the same!

Thanks.

Not sure, but this old thread might help.

CEM NVR is not the same as Bond,Letts etc. If you search the forum you may come across examples published by schools.

I think the 3d NVR may include nets but is mainly shapes and blocks-there may be examples as above.

Has anybody had cubes or nets turn up in CEM exams?

Has Bond just used their traditional NVR and bundled it into their CEM practice test papers or am am I seriously missing something???

They are nothing like the familiarisation papers popping up on the school websites that have adopted CEM?

I think NVR is just NVR - not any variation for CEM format. It is just the time/speed that's different. We did not do any special prep on CEM for NVR and there were no surprises in the exam.

I don't think it is particularly different to Bond my DD did Warks CEM last Sept and she said the NVR was similar to what she had practised which was Bond and a bit of IPS. I also think she said there was no 3D shapes.
