Title: 2011 Trial Exams
Post by: tony3272 on July 12, 2011, 10:30:27 pm

So i honestly had no idea where to put this thread, but here seemed fine since half my subjects are here.

I'm just wondering if the practice exams for the commercial companies (TSSM, NEAP, Insight etc) can only be bought by schools? I doubt our school is going to purchase them so i want to know if they sell them seperately.

Thanks guys  :)

I know for NEAP you can buy them I think, but you may as well wait until people put them on here :P

I personally prefer insight exams because they easy :)

Insight say only teachers can buy them and Neap only seem to have older papers for student purchase (i.e. 2008-2009).

I think that you can buy Neap "smartstudy guides" which include ~3 practice exams.

So basically some companies will only let schools purchase exams, and some have student exams as well. Best to look around the company websites yourself.

Insight and NEAP won't let you buy them.  GG.

I actually put TSSM in my original post but i never actually checked their website :P
I guess i might get theirs (although they're not the greatest)

Neap will continue with this process but is now making these prior exams available individually for students who haven't had access to them through their schools.

I've already got these ones through this site :). I guess it's good that they're at least selling these for students though.

That is actually quite good by NEAP.  Prices are reasonable as well...but they really should make the 2010/11 ones available as well.  :/
