I'm feeling quite disheartened today...

My daughter has been getting 90%+ in all of her practice papers at home (all done under timed exam conditions). Papers from GL (I purchased them all from the GL website), as well as papers from 11 Plus Leap. However, on her recent mock, she scored quite low. I'm shocked because of how well she was doing at home, but also, when I went through the mock paper, she knew the answers to a lot of them. So I don't know what happened in the exam. She is not a nervous or anxious person, she's extremely laid back.

I've been told the mocks (the ones she's been doing) are intentionally much more difficult than what the actual exam is likely to be. However, I just don't understand why my daughter is writing down wrong answers to questions to questions she answers correctly at home. I've had a gentle chat with her, and she can't understand either. :-/ I don't know if it's just lack of focus or the pressure of being in an actual exam hall that's making her mind go blank.

I have less than 3 weeks to help her through this. :-/
