Hi, Does anyone know the format of the CLSB exam? Roughly when you drop off/pick up etc? Two weeks to go and there's still no info. I'm wondering if I can fit it around work/work remotely somewhere nearby etc. We're doing 10+ but I imagine it's similar to the 11+.

Good luck to everyone.
The email this morning said by Thursday the 8th. Does that mean that there's an actual chance they will get in touch before?

Maths was tricky he said, skipped a few. VR was intense and couldn't finish last couple of questions. Good luck to everyone

Email this morning from school said over 250 children sat the exam. DS sat the morning one and said there were at least a hundred kids there, so it sounds about right. He found the comprehension on the hard side. Best of luck to everyone.

The vr was really hard 85q for 35 mins. Feel it’s bit too much for a 10 plus

Yes. How did it go? DS didn’t complete either the maths or the reasoning, not expecting much from this one! 😅

DS had his exam in the morning today. Did you have yours in the afternoon?

Thanks I've got it now too! For some reason I had it in my head that the exam would be in the morning which would have been nice. I was thinking we could do something fun in London afterwards but oh well!
