11 Plus Exams Forum

Hooray no more 11+ exams!!!! A very happy relaxed house this afternoon! (*Not thinking about March 1st!*)

Hooray indeed!

Now time to relax and spoil our DD's

So glad that's over!

How did your DD's find the exam. My one is saying Maths was hard. Has anybody got the feedback from DD's about it? I am bit worrying now. I know its over at last.

I guess we can't say too much as girls who were ill today may still have yet to take the test. What I can say is DD always finds timing in maths tricky and didn't finish and was more pushed for time in English than previously. She did enjoy the English though. It all felt a bit calmer today than stage 1, albeit still quite a big crowd.

Yes. English could be the reason why we couldn't do Maths practice at all like Stage 1.

We found maths was hard too, hardest among any exam ever taken. She wasnt allowed blue pen luckily the very kind girl sitting next to her lend her one. There were boxes of black pen provided for anyone needed as well.

That's odd as the letter said black or blue pen allowed!

I was surprised when my daughter said she'd left one English question. I've never known her to leave out or be pushed for time. She's always finished with bags of time previously on English.

Now the waiting!
