Choose how to practise

Print the A4 question booklet for a quiet session at the table, then mark it with the separate answer booklet. Or sit online for autosaving, a topic breakdown and worked explanations. Offline answers are not uploaded; no online score or benchmark is created by printing.

Downloading either booklet before completing the online sitting removes that sitting from the first-sitting cohort comparison. Keep answer booklets with the supervising adult.

Know the format

Our three papers in each covered subject contain 50 original MCQs. English and Maths use 45 minutes, and verbal reasoning uses 40 minutes. These are our independent subject-practice timings, not Quest’s combined-paper schedule. Non-verbal reasoning is excluded. We do not claim Quest endorsement, an exact test replica or an official Bexley standardised score.

INDEPENDENT BEXLEY-RELATED VERBAL ABILITY COMPONENT PRACTICE. This original Exam Quay paper has 50 MCQs in 40 minutes, including reading instructions and examples. Our question count, timer and suggested section allocations are practice choices, not verified live Bexley component limits. Current Quest guidance describes a combined verbal-ability and English-comprehension booklet, and a separate numerical and non-verbal booklet. This extended, freely navigable subject paper does not reproduce those two combined, section-timed booklets. NVR is not included. Choose exactly ONE answer unless the prompt explicitly requests TWO. Questions have five or six choices; six-choice paired tasks preserve Group 1 in A–C and Group 2 in D–F. The complete correct set earns one mark; all other sets earn zero, with no partial or negative marks. This is Exam Quay’s scoring rule, not a claim about an undisclosed official scoring algorithm. Exam Quay is independent of Bexley Council and Quest Assessments.

Plan three sessions

Start with Paper 1, review a few mistakes together, then leave time to revisit those skills before Paper 2. Use Paper 3 for another practice session when ready. These numbers indicate different questions, not calibrated difficulty.
