Re: Hot takes
My DD came out relaxed but said it was a hard test. She also can’t remember anything about it! Hope all works out in the end.

edited to remove test details
dd said one girl started crying at the end of test one and another girl at the beginning of test 2
well, nothing we can do now!

Re: Hot takes
Don't mention any details as there will be students doing the same paper on the backup date.
Your dc will lose out if you share details that will help the late sitters. DG

Re: Hot takes
I might add that dd1 said very similar 3 years ago - like the practice books, maybe a bit easier. She got into SHS in top 150.
Re: Hot takes
My son came out saying the first paper was really hard but the second one was fine. Just wondering if anyone else got a similar response when they asked their child??
Re: Hot takes
Feel so bad for those that found it upsetting.

Re: Hot takes
No point second guessing... just forget it and wait till 12th.. enjoy the time.
Re: Hot takes
Interestingly mine said the opposite, found second much harder than first.Madteach wrote:My son came out saying the first paper was really hard but the second one was fine. Just wondering if anyone else got a similar response when they asked their child??
Re: Hot takes
I think it very much depends on their strengths. If NVR is your weakest point then the paper with more/all of that in will feel harder to you. So very hard to tell anything from that
