So, I am at work and by now the results are at (empty) home.

I've been reading this forum for a long time.
But have finally gone to the trouble of registering.
I just needed to say...

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH! I CAN'T TAKE THE WAIT!!!!!!

My wonderful DD whom I had almost lost faith in has got into Pates.

I can't believe it, and I am also shaking like a leaf. She said she felt confident ; I have spend the last two weeks preparing her for a major let down. Oh me of little faith!

Good Luck to everyone else - the wait for the postman who promised to be here at 9 and has only turned up now has been agonising!!!! - so I know what you're feeling. Hopefully you'll get some good news too!

Silerflora, Ziggy and Sackboy - CONGRATULATIONS to you all - that has put a smile on my face on a very tense morning - waiting for my post - just jumped out of my skin as my letter box went - and it was a pizza leaflet!!

silverfora,
Go and have a look at Orson's post from Sun Nov 16, 2008 1:26 pm (in the "Sitting the test next year" topic)
spooky eh?

263 boys have passed for Tommies this year this is higher than normal because of the combining of the scores I assume? Does anyone have any idea what sort of score would be enough to secure a place there I think we have a pretty safe score to get into The Crypt as I am assuming their pass mark will remain pretty standard and around the same as last year?

Really pleased to be hearing all this good news and fingers still crossed for those who are yet to post.

You're right!

It just shows you never know and you should never give up! A couple of lessons for mum there, I think.

DD got enough for Denmark Road, not sure if she has a place though. Will have to wait til March, letter was very confusing. 217 passed for Denmark Road, so have no idea where in the list DD is placed.
