CAT/pre-test/11+

[Newtothisthing123]

Sorry, posting here for traffic.
I am trying to prepare my daughter for selective exams. We are applying to several schools and they all want different things. I am trying to figure out the difference between CAT/pre-test/11+. I looked at examples and V.R./NVR/maths look pretty similar. It says on GL website that CAT measures inane ability and therefore is a better selective tool compared to 11+. But questions look like bond practice test to me, I honestly can’t see how they are superior? And if they are, what is the best way to prepare?

Anyone? :(

The Education boards may be able to give more specific advice? The schools we applied to advised on the best practice booklets / past papers to work from.

Thank you Furry! Will ask on that board too, I find it all so stressful!

Thank you Emma, one of the schools is going to give DC a Cat test, which they said is impossible to prepare for. I looked at some CAT tests and can’t see how it’s different to other 11+ exams...
