Hi All

Just found out DD score for the Kent test and she got 417. We live in Bromley and she wants to go to Dartford girl. Does anyone know if she got a good chance of getting through with this score? Thanks

Yes I think anything above 400 you stand a very good chance.

Is she top 180 ?

As far as I am aware the "top 180" isn't relevant to Kent. Its a Bexley issue.

Why don't you ring the school for advice? Also a good idea to have a look at the admissions criteria.

For Dartford - yes the score is relevant.
Last year I think the cut off was 404 .

I believe Wilmington boys takes 10% (so12 for PAN of 120) high scorers who name them on their CAF. The other places are on distance. I believe that last year they went out 9 miles which is info from our appeal paperwork but i would need to check paperwork in the loft to be certain :?

PAN is published admissions number i.e. the number of children in each yearly intake.

Is there anyway of knowing now whether you would be in the top 10%?
What score was this last year?
Thank you
