Hi ,
I’m hoping to gather some insights on the Problem-Solving examination at LEH Senior School. My daughter will be sitting this paper as part of her application for Year 7 entry, and we’re keen to understand what she might expect.
The exam is said to cover Linguistic and Mathematical Problem-Solving skills, and we’d really appreciate any clarity or examples on what this actually
Thank you so much in advance for any help!

My daughter took this exam last year and I can't offer much help! I got the sense the school keep it deliberately vague.

The only limited feedback I got from her was that there was a wide mix of questions aimed at problem solving and reasoning. She didn't tell me any more other than it was quite fun.

In terms of preparation, we did buy a month of Atom and did the problem solving questions on there when putting in LEH as the target school.

However, I think there is nothing to suggest these are similar to the actual paper, but I think just having a go at general problem solving / reasoning from Atom or other problem solving / NVR apps or books was probably helpful to get in the problem solving frame of mind.

Sorry not to be more helpful
