11plus Maths
Posted: Fri Jun 12, 2009 12:00 pm
Hi
Although it is some way off our DS taking the 11plus maths exam, I am curious to the balance and make-up of the test.
For example, if you were to list the skills you would need to master for the exam what would it cover e.g.:
The 4 main operations: addition, subtraction, division, multiplication / timestable
Shapes
Fractions, decimals, percentages
Algebra & equations
Square roots, graphs
Would also be good to know the percentages that make up the test between each set of skills, e.g. 30% of what you need to learn is the 4 main operations (+ - / x).
Many thanks for your time with this
