I could plot a nice graph of temperature vs number of 11+ practice papers downloaded or number of 11+ online courses taken and see a very strong negative correlation. Our site has been extremely busy since we launched the free practice papers section but this weekend saw a drop in the number of 11 plus practice tests being downloaded. Now that the bank holiday weekend is over, we expect to see all those students vying for a place at grammar school getting back to business and making use of all the free 11 plus resources on our website.

This is a good opportunity for me to ask you to please watch the method and technique videos before attempting any of the 11+ verbal reasoning questions. I've lost count of the number of emails and phone calls from people (with varying degrees of anger) who have yet to see mirror type questions. They appear in a few of the 21 verbal reasoning question types. After watching the method and technique videos they often write back to apologise and thank us for showing them a new variation on these verbal reasoning questions. 'Mirror type' questions HAVE appeared in nfer papers in the past. They are not explained in some 11 plus method and technique books available in shops. You'll find lots of useful tips and examples of different variations on the question types in our verbal reasoning method and technique videos. Watch them - they are free after all!
