Holding my breath for tomorrow. Drop off at last exam and home to open envelopes. Everything is crossed.

Hi, I just received the letter from Highgate today inviting my DS for an interview next week. It says they are inviting around 40% of those who sat the exam. Good luck!

Congrats loveyouradvice! Do you have a feel for how many pupils the 40% represents? This process is so nerve-wrecking - we have had 2 rejects so far (UCS and Dulwich) and the Highgate interview. Hope the next 2 weeks bring better news for us...

Not sure... I know that last year the figures were about 500 applying, with offers made to 150 or so for 60-70 places.....Very sorry about UCS and Dulwich - gosh! That is a big geographic spread!
