saw this on a news group (I have ***** the email address in case innocent). So troll or desparate?
I am looking for a copy of the examination paper for WEDNESDAY 8th DECEMBER.
This is the 11+ paper for QUEEN MARYS HIGH SCHOOL FOR GIRLS IN WALSALL.
I am willing to pay £5000 (yes .. five thousand pounds) for a copy of the 2 papers.
I know that NFER do the paper...
EMAIL me at ********@msn.com or reply here.

Just an observation.
Surely you are better off buying the practice papers, and for that sort of money you can buy plenty of papers and a tutor such that your son or daughter will sail through the exams!
In any event how can anyone trust you are good for your money?

I agree, but this was posted just a few days ago!
Whoever it was is both totally desperate and insecure or has suddenly woken up to the fact that hard work is required to try for the 11+ which they have failed to do. I would have thought that having the papers a few days in advance would not help a great deal anyway; can you imagine learning every question/answer pair? If the child is that bright they should pass anyway. As you say tutors and practice will get you a better chance.
I was just shocked at how far some people will go to get their child a school place….
Is it nearly March yet?

Hm.
My Daughters teacher set the class a surprise mock exam using the Nfer Nelson tests. She had alread studied the non-verbal one with me! She scored 55 out of 60. Proof I think that having a copy of the test at home is a conciderable advantage.
However trying to buy the paper was silly. He could hardly expect a refund when the paper proved to be for another school or date. He also didn't concider the posibility of blackmail in the unlikely case of it being genuine.
