Yeah, me too. However if you click 'continue' it ignores the timer.CrazyHorse wrote:I'm too young to have done the 11 plus anyway, but that test is only allowing me 5 seconds to complete the thing!
Just be honest with yourself. It took me 6 minutes-ish

I failed the 11+ in 1955 (so it was obviously a meaningless test of educational ability ). As will CH, the timer went right down to zero very quickly. I did continue and got 13 out of 15 - probably in 6 or 7 minutes - wasn't timing accurately as I was thinking too hard. I probably should have gone back to the one where I took a wild guess.

Yes, though failing 11+ I did pass Common Entrance (at 13 years) old) and won both a scholarship and the Divinity Prize. So I wasn't a complete failure.Prufrock wrote:15, yipee kay ey.
Wasn't called the 11+ , but passed an entrance exam for school.
