Each test should take about 20 minutes, however it is more important that a child completes the test accurately and does not rush their answers. Children will speed up naturally with practice. This testbook provides practice for the GL Assessment 11+ exams, CATs, Common Entrance and scholarship examinations for independent schools, and other styles of verbal reasoning test. The testbooks are designed to be used in conjunction with the 11+ Verbal Reasoning Year 5-7 GL & Other Styles workbooks as an additional learning tool. After completion, the testpacks should be used for final exam preparation. Answers, Progress Charts and a Certificate of Achievement are included at the end of the book. All our materials have been rigorously classroom tested. The methodologies have been successfully used in AE Tuition classes for over 20 years.
