Highgate School published this sample paper as preparation for its assessment. It is official school material, but not a paper candidates actually sat. Most 7+ entrance exams are sat between November and January of the year of entry, so a timed attempt at this paper is worth doing early enough to leave room for the topics it exposes. Work through it on screen with instant marking, or print the PDF and sit it under exam conditions.
