hi
my son is taking his 11plus this sept (08)
he will be 11 3days after the first test. i have looked at the chart on this website for standardised scores and it only goes up to 10years 6months, does any one know if this is when extra points added for age stops?
can anyone give me a idea of the percentage my son would need to get to pass? also does any one in lincolnshire recommend using the bond books or just the nfer packs.

i would be gratefull for any advice xx

Sorry, a very late reply. Hope you have discovered some of the mysteries of standardised scoring by now. The tests can be standardised for anyone born between 1st September and 31st August of the year in question. There is no "set amount" of points added for being a certain age - all depends on the particular cohort and how they compare with each other. My two will already be 11 when they take the tests this year as they were born at the beginning of September.
