Latymer Upper - time given for maths and english?
Hello,
I was wondering if someone whose Dc has sat the Latymer Upper entrance exam would be willing to share some details? Specifically, how long are the maths and english papers...? The information is not on their web. Thank you!

From memory about an hour each. They send you some past papers when you register (or did a few years ago) which are helpful too. They have a reasoning paper aswell.
Hope someone replies who sat it this year with more current info - good luck!

My DD sat this in Jan. It's quite a toughie as they do an hour each for English and Maths then they have reasoning which this year was 20 mins of verbal reasoning, not sure how many questions, but hard to complete in the time. They also had 3 lots of NVR, each was something like 8-10 questions to complete in about 8 mins which again was tight according to DD. She finished the maths, all but the last sentence of her essay in the English and missed some of the reasoning questions, though completed at least one NVR section. She was interviewed and offered a place but we have accepted another school instead. Hope this helps
