Preparation for Watford Grammar School Test 2008

Post by Polly »

My son has Asperger's Syndrome and all the (lack of) concentration problems that go with the condition. We hope that he will be given a place at Watford Grammar School and I am tutoring him for the test.

I made the decsion not to send him to a tutor for two reasons, my son does not want to go to a tutor and I am not confident that it would be the best option given his difficulties and his need for one to one attention.

He is well motivated and has been working hard (for between one and two hours at a time five days a week) for the last few weeks. I am hopeful, but not necessarily confident that this can be sustained.

What I need to know is,

What are the best tutorials and practice papers for the Watford Grammar School test?

Should we be using multiple choice, standard format papers or both?

Are we spending the right amount of time practising? - My son is above average at Maths, but struggles with some aspects of Verbal Reasoning (especially word codes).
