Exam season is upon us and many students are preparing for scholarships and selective schools exams. With only a few short weeks to go before a number of select entry and scholarship exams take place, I thought I’d provide some last minute advice and offer you a free gift.
There are two main factors that contribute to success on a select entry or scholarship exam: content knowledge and timing.
One cannot exist without the other.
Your child may answer all questions quickly and within the timeframe, however if they don’t know HOW to answer the questions, this will unlikely lead to success.
Similarly, if your child understands how to do the questions, but takes significantly longer than one minute to answer each item, or doesn’t have a refined test taking ability, a majority of the questions will remain unanswered.
This will also unlikely lead to success.
This is why we have produced our exam packs.
We have carefully dissected countless sample exams to determine the most common types of questions your child is likely to encounter. In addition to this, we have formulated the most efficient method to answer each question and have come up with step by step solutions, written in a simple way just as though your child were sitting beside us in a tutoring session.
The sum of our work is presented in our popular exam packs
Over the past 14 years, we have made it our mission to prepare students for these types of exams. We believe that hard work should be rewarded and every child should get the opportunity to attend a top school, if they so desire. We also keep our materials updated by speaking to students who sit these exams each year and strive to make them as close as possible to the actual exams.
Unlike speaking, test taking ability is a learned skill and does not come naturally to many students.
Like learning a musical instrument, the only way to improve is through practice.
If you would like more practice tests that cover similar topics and are formatted like the actual test that your child will encounter on the actual exam, our digital bookstore has you covered.
