Nervousmom,

For FW there is nothing to worry about with that score. 237 will most definitely get you into FW.

About to fill in the form, having a momentary panic and just need some reassurance and a bit of hand holding please.

Is 231 a safe score for BV? I know it should be and I'm being daft, thoughts appreciated anyway.

[MSD]

Of course it is! Should also be good enough for FW and Aston.

Thanks a lot!

City could release more information on the percentiles, which would help many parents to make decisions. For boys CHB stands out, for girls, the schools are very similar. Since the marks were already released and assuming applicants are rational decision makers (which city would hope), then less uncertainties exist. The cut-off for CHB would be higher (I put a lucky number 5 scores), for the other schools the cut-off would be very similar to (at most slightly higher than) last year.

The score we received I feel it was already standardised by age. Otherwise it makes no sense to compare it with the range which closely follows kid's score. It is fair to consider age factor at this young stage, does age matter when it comes to GCSE, A level?

I know, that's why we could have had more information...
