Selective Eligibilty Test - Kingston / Sutton tutors

[nat47]

Does anyone have any useful feedback from their children about the SET? Is the English like these new CEM tests, or just regular comprehension? I know it's multiple choice, but I just wondered about the content. Any particularly useful practice papers / books? Also, can anyone recommend a good tutor in the Kingston / Sutton area. I know about some of the teaching centres with large classes, but I'm looking for someone who'll do either individual or small group tuition. Please could you pm me if you do? Thanks!

Hi!
Can anyone suggest good study material regarding the 'Fill in the blanks' question with regards to selective Eligibility test? Any help much appreciated.

Bye.

Have you seen cloze books? And also AE vocab books 1 to 12, but perhaps few last ones would be sufficient.

By the way, you could make your own cloze texts. Just cut any item from newspaper or magazines and blank out words as appropriate.

Thanks for the reply. Can you give some examples of close questions that we could make? Also suggest some book other then AE vocabulary ones? Thnx

Haven't gone through CEM yet. Some one else may help better.

Some of the books are on sale on this website's shop, e.g.

and also you could see many on amazon, e.g.

Hope this helps.

Just to mention that none of these grammars would admit testing to Level 6. Expected level is 4; Level 5 is more than required from year 6 children at the end of year 6, rather than at the beginning of the year 6, when entrance tests are sat for.

That's life here.
