So you have made it to the last of our four Eleven Plus Verbal Reasoning quizzes on Anagrams – give yourself a pat on the back! By now you should be a bit of an expert when asked ‘what is the mixed-up word?’ I do hope so, because this is the most difficult quiz in this section, and you’ll need your wits about you to answer every question correctly.
Remember that, as well as being a word you can form from the jumbled letters you are given, your answer must also make the most sense in the sentence. For example, look at this:
"She created her picture with a variety of SNIK."
Three words can be made from SNIK: ‘sink’, ‘skin’ and ‘inks’. However, neither ‘skin’ nor ‘sink’ make much sense in this case. The answer is ‘inks’.
Now on with the quiz. Will you be able to keep your head and score ten out of ten, or will you, like the words, get all mixed up? Let‘s see. Good luck!
