Grade 3 theory

One of my students has asked me to go over his Grade 3 theory for his exam in the next few weeks.

I don't know what board he's doing but I was wondering if anyone had any past papers or tips that I could pass on to him for it. My knowledge of the subject is sound but not the exam.

Ta.

If its Trinity College of music london then:

Sight reading,
Scales must know all from the grade 3 list but will only be asked for three
Aural (spelling?),
Ear tests/ Listening,
and basic musical terms knowledge
Also the ability to recognise intervals (Minor/Major 3rd, perfect 4th or perfect 5th those are the ones for grade 3)
and i think a warm up exercise may be asked, but if its Trinity he should have the Trinity book for grade 1-8 stuff?

I THINK thats all?

Trinity london only does "jazz bass" exams i think not too sure on that

BTW: My information? Thats what they want for my Trombone grade three this day three weeks from now
doing grade 5 two months after XD

so i could be way out but thats the bass Brass at least (trombone,tuba,Euphonium and variations)

Hope thats a form of help!
