11 Plus Exams Forum

Hi,

Can someone share the rank that place is offered?
My friends son is ranked 360 something. but he is not offered the place.
Will there be chance for him during April reallocations?.
I called the Marling to know about the ranking and waiting list but no one is responded.

Thanks

We haven't got offer from Marling with ranking of under 350. Any idea on cut off please.

Came to know from my friend that school places was offered till 344 Rank.

Thanks rose02.

How is the movement looks like in April. Will there be some students offered place in Marling but do not accept for some reason and is this significant number and common every year?
Can any one help please, thank you in advance.

77 boys passed for Marling but did not gain a place.

there is always some movement, and some who get in on appeal, so don't give up yet.

Thank you steppemum.
We shouldn't giveup, but I read that there is late 11plus test in March 2016 and these boys with all the advantages of late March test will be ranked and slotted into the existing waiting list; pushing the already big (77) waiting list.
By the way normally how many are these late test takers?

Is 77 the waiting list of boys wanting a place (sounds very high) or the number that they gave a ranking to beyond their cut off point (who may have applied to STR or Crypt instead?) would be useful info for those with DSs who didn't get an allocation yesterday.

The pass mark for Marling has traditionally been somewhat lower than that for Crypt and much lower than for STRS so I think it unlikely that those on the waiting list for Marling will have secured other grammar places.

Amber - I am not sure that is true any more, I think the last 2 years Crypt may have been lower??
