I got the sum one wrong.

I thought the other where rather easy considering these tests are meant to seperate the brightest students from the rest of the crowd.

I don't understand how people got the brush one wrong, but then I guess thattats because my reasoning is obviously different than theres.

The number sequence was quite simple, just deduction by 7, then 6 and then 23 wasn't the next as it wasn't the deduction of 5... or maybe the numbers started a bit higher.

Is that really representative of an 11+ test though? I don't think it is. We did one in sociology and critically analysed the questions and found plenty of biases.
