| Guidance Notes for Using and Interpreting the Secondary School Selection Style Online Test Service |
| |
| | Before attempting a Secondary Selection style test paper online, you should read these notes to assist you in completing the test and interpreting your result. | |
| |
| | The Secondary School Selection style practice tests on our database have been devised to a similar standard of complexity and level to a typical Selection test such as the 11+. They are a useful indication of skill levels typical of pupils in school years 6 and 7. | |
| |
| | In an actual multi-choice 11+ test the answer is selected by drawing a line in a box. | |
| |
| |
| | The purpose of these online tests: | |
| |
| |
- To allow students to practise questions of a similar level in order to improve their grade potential for an actual exam.
- Students receive computer-generated hints/tips for those questions not answered correctly.
- Students gain an idea of their percentage score and this can also be used for the purpose of monitoring their own progress if they re-take a similar test.
- The online test is marked immediately and your feedback is returned quickly.
- As a useful check-up on Level 4-6 maths.

| |
| | To maximise learning from the Online Test Service: | |
| |
| |
- Do use pencil and paper to assist you with finding the correct answer. Do keep this 'working out' for future reference, numbering your paper where appropriate.
- Do remember the differences between the Online Test Service and a 'real' exam.
- Do regard the Online Test Service as only part of your exam preparation.
- Do remember that the 'pass mark' for an actual test is determined to some extent by the overall ability of students taking the tests.
- Do remember that the Mathematics test forms only part of the Secondary Selection process.
