11+ pasmark fro southed boys high
My son took the test yesterady too.
I was told by the consortium for the past 2 years the in catchment pass mark is 55% which = a score of 302.5. Out of catchment is roughly 10% more.
i.e. you won't get in with a score less than 302.5...2005 they did not offer all within catchment palces as not enough reached this score, so more places out of catchment were offered.
I use the word "pass" mark loosely becasue as the powers that be insist there is no pass/fail....Ha! who are they kidding!
My son found the papers much as other messages posted..Maths and VR as expected and English very difficult...not surprsied..Tess of the D'Aubervilles was an o-level piece in my day..ridiculous!..They are just pushing the bar higher each year and I think it's unfair on 10 year old kids. I felt like I was taking a lamb to slaughter yesterday.
good luck for results in March
