Westminster School? Do I stand a good chance?

is the math exam calculator //???

You mean "is calculator allowed for the maths exam"? No you can't use a calculator, but you can use one for chemistry and physics.

I'm sorry its been long.....
Yh...happy new year!!!
:P

I was just wondering if I should practice intermidiate math challenge papers or senior ....

Hey! Happy new year hahaha :P

I don't know about the maths challenge papers. I think you can try out the more advanced word problems (algebra) in your textbook if you got any just work on the speed.

thanx! i know for westminister people say dont bother preparing ..but for other schools, do u know any other school website that has past papers for the entrance exam

i tried that it didnt work >>>i just trie emailing the schools..
they are..harrow,winchester,st.pauls, rugby and mill hill

well, i think if you cannot find them online the schools don't want you to see the past papers. so they probably won't e-mail them to you. i have heard that st paul's tests you on your present knowledges so you should do some revision

DEATH! ..oh well! Its probably for the best.. Ruined summer!

I guess you don't have to revise through summer. Maybe just go through the things you have learnt a week before the entrance exams?

hey i am thinking of applying to westminster
but i recently looked at the sample chemistry questions in the exam
and had no clue what to do with them
are they as/ a level questions
as at my school we have covered nothing to do with that sort of material

Yh! I guess so..anyways harrow and westminister are my first choice DD

And seriously, don't go to Harrow

Just a heads up on Harrow - I'm assuming you're taking the exam from HK so I'm just going to drop a few tips cos I know a lot of people who took Sixth Form Entry:


Your profile says you're 14. There are people from Hong Kong who started the Lower Sixth at 18, so if you fail the first time feel free to try again. The entry requirements are also very competitve, so don't be disappointed if you don't get in because most Lower Sixth (from UK and overseas) come with scholarships. Many of these Lower Sixth will be "imports" to boost school teams, i.e. the maths team [which is, coincidentally, the best school team ever.] or even the cricket team.

In addition, if you're applying from HK you MUST go through an academic agency such as Academic Asia. They can help a lot, and they provide you with more opportunities to meet teachers.

Haha I actually considered Harrow, but didn't like it when I visited. I'm sure it's a good school, though, Winchester is just better...;D
