This final lesson brings together everything you have learned and gives you practical strategies for the SET 11+ maths papers. The Sutton Selective Eligibility Test (SET) has two stages: Stage 1 is a multiple-choice paper (around 50 questions in 45 minutes), and Stage 2 is a written paper (45 minutes, not multiple choice — you must write your answers and show your working). This lesson will help you approach both stages with confidence.
| Feature | Stage 1 | Stage 2 |
|---|---|---|
| Format | Multiple choice (MCQ) | Written (show working) |
| Time | ~45 minutes | ~45 minutes |
| Questions | ~50 questions | Fewer questions, more marks each |
| Marking | Correct answer only | Method AND answer marks |
| Penalty for wrong answers | No penalty | No penalty for trying |
Key Point: Stage 1 and Stage 2 test different skills. Stage 1 rewards speed and accuracy. Stage 2 rewards reasoning and clear communication.
