Getting started with BOFA ISEB Pretest Mock Tests

Log into the child account to access the tests. We recommend you go through the demos with your child so you are both familiar with how our ISEB Pre-Test Mock Tests work. Each subject demo takes between 4 and 8 minutes and takes you through the initial test, practice stage, retest and report. We encourage you to answer some questions incorrectly in order to go through the full process and get the full benefit from the demo. The full demo will take between 16 and 30 minutes to complete

You are now ready to start your first ISEB Mock Test. Remember the Mock Tests are designed to be taken as a mock exam and therefore unlike our 11+ tests cannot be paused or retaken. Please ensure you allow enough time to complete a subject test in one sitting and that your device is fully charged with a stable internet connection. You do not need to complete each ISEB Mock Test in one sitting, but each subject test must be completed in one sitting.

The time allocation for each subject test is as follows:

  • Verbal Reasoning has 25 minutes.

  • Non-Verbal Reasoning has 30 minutes.

  • Maths has 40 minutes.

  • English has 40 minutes.

If your child is allowed extra time in the exam you can set the same allowance in BOFA by logging into the parent account, going to the ‘Manage children’ page, and amending the Test Options in the edit child page. Help on this can be found here.
