Preparing for a 16+ Maths Entrance Exam
Sixth-form entrance tests often contain unfamiliar problems designed to distinguish between students who can apply GCSE techniques flexibly. Work through several different schools’ papers rather than repeatedly practising one format, and spend time understanding problems you could not initially solve.
Use UKMT Problems Alongside Entrance Papers
UKMT Intermediate Challenge and Pink Kangaroo questions are excellent supplementary practice because they develop the same kind of reasoning, pattern recognition and non-routine problem solving that selective entrance examinations often reward.
