[shital]

Hi all i have got still year ahead, we only do the bond books with all the subjects and first aid book in English for the practice. Is that suitable for the 11+ in birmingham??

Do not waste your time and money. My kid got to CH almost without private tutor(just few month before exam) and had never sit any mock exams before 11+. Everything you can do yourself at home.

Yea, my child got into grammar with a couple of test papers too....amazing how these type of stories always surface a few weeks after the results!!

I agree - CHB is certainly full of amazing boys who only ever did one test practice paper on the back of an envelope

I did not say that he did not have any help. Just we spent around £700 for everything and it includes bond assesment papers. He did not sit ANY mock tests at all.

I know many kids whose parents spent thousands of pounds for private school, tutor, kumon and other sorts of thing were not succesfull. We just did DIY.
