An assessment for exceptional ambition.
EPAT is an exceptionally challenging English and Verbal Reasoning assessment designed for pupils preparing for entrance to the UK's most selective schools.
It isn't another collection of 11+ practice papers.
It is designed to answer a much more useful question:
How prepared is this student for the level of challenge ahead?
EPAT consists of six separate one-hour assessments. Together, they provide a rigorous assessment of a student's English and Verbal Reasoning ability.
The purpose isn't simply to produce a score.
EPAT is designed to reveal:
- Where a student is already performing exceptionally well
- Where weaknesses or knowledge gaps remain
- Which areas require further preparation
- How prepared they currently appear for highly selective entrance examinations
EPAT does not predict admission to any particular school. It provides evidence of a student's current level of preparation, and of the areas that still require development.
EPAT isn't designed for everyone.
And that's intentional.
It has been created for academically ambitious pupils who enjoy being stretched, challenged and occasionally stumped.
The assessment is particularly suited to students who are:
- Preparing for highly selective 11+ entrance examinations
- Already performing strongly academically
- Curious and intellectually ambitious
- Comfortable tackling unfamiliar problems
- Looking for a genuine test of their current ability
For many students, EPAT will be unnecessarily difficult.
For the right student, that is precisely the point.
So, are you an EPAT student?
There's one way to find out.
