Hey there all,

We are in the process of moving to Doha( as the new academic term kicks in-Sept 2015)
I have two boys aged 13 and 11 and we have already applied in numerous sought after schools, some of which might be allowing them to sit for online tests. It would essentially be CAT, Maths and English.

My question is rather a simple one;
Other then their current grades syllabus, can I prepare them with any other material that any of you might be aware of.

Thanks
Bee

Hello, If your children are currently doing well in school (at grade level), have no learning issues and are going to school where the instruction is in English or are native English speakers, they shouldn't have a problem with the assessments. I think the assessments are given more to find 'red flags' and weed out the children whom they feel will have a problem with an English speaking/teaching curriculum. Unfortunately, most schools don't have programs for special needs or learning disabled children. Good luck with everything.
