I know of 2 who were telephoned by mt's on saturday afternoon for interview tomorrow - assume telephoned as the post may have not been in time. Cross fingers for you too.

I remember that feeling so, so well from last year and two years previous. Waiting is hard. Hang in there CoolMum5.

Does it mean anything if you are interviewed early - or telephoned for interview?

Sure they telephoned rather than letter just because of time limit

Hi CoolMum5,

I don't know how true this is but I've been told by a friend that interview dates are offered based on how well the child performs, i.e dcs with very high score will be offered the first interview date and so on.

Josa - stop spreading rumours!

next someone will say that the interview calls also depend on whether a bursary has been applied for

I agree, this conjecture is just causing people more stress, as the bumpf that went out with the MT's application stated they expected 300 children to apply, of which they expected to call back 220 for interview, that's pretty good odds! No one should worry about what it means if you have or haven't received a phone call less than four days after the exam. I am sure that the majority of those 220 will receive a letter sometime this week. The info from the school also stated that people should expect to be called for interview in late January/early February, we are only mid January now.
