SCHOOL PAPERS 1 and 2

[chez]

How close to the real 11plus are practice papers 1 and 2 please?

Are you talking about Bucks? My understanding is that the first test (A?) is easier than the real thing and the next two (1&2?) are equivalent to the real thing. The only thing is that they are the same every year so there will always be children in the class who have done them before. There is quite a lot on this in various posts in the Bucks section.

Thanks -Yes, Bucks. I thought the same as you've stated but they seemed easier. I'll check out the Bucks forum. I couldn't see much on there but haven't done a search.

Can't find much on Bucks forum about practice papers

Chez, you need to search for "familiarisation" rather than practice. There are nearly 200 posts on the topic.
