Hi Skylark, she came out saying she felt she had done quite well, and felt a bit better. But I'm panicking because I suggested that she answered the maths more thoroughly than the grammar as you can't guess it thinking she might do 75% of it and so get virtually 75% right and she informed me that she only did half the paper

Maths is her best subject, but she's not great under time limits. I'm now wishing I just said rush through and do as much as possible.
Aaaw I'm glad it went well and she was feeling better

With regards to the maths, I think only A and B is the main important areasand the C section, from my understanding is to find the scholarship candidates. I am not sure if this is the same format for the girls school. But the sample booklet they sent after we register, said that they hope - half is attempted at least.
My son worried a great deal about the creative writing bit. He is an avid reader, but it seems in exam conditions his mind goes blank. Let's see what he says. All I told him was to attempt as much as possible and leave time to check his work. I hope he comes out feeling positive.
If your daughter felt positive overall, hopefully that means she tried her best and well done to her.
