FairyElephant,

We have not heard anything, but they don't all organise it by schools. I will post as soon as I hear anything, good or bad.

fairyelephant, i just called the school and they were very helpful in saying that the letter for interviews went out today so you should hear by tomorrow.

I asked about the calls made for interviews today and they said that they wanted to squeeze in a few today and the post would be too slow for notification.

I called because I thought it was really weird that some people had heard about interviews while others had not and that the process wasn't very transparent compared to the others schools we had applied.

Good luck everyone! DD enjoyed the interview. According to the letter, they will ask the girls either a maths question or to describe a picture. DD got the picture question and was not asked to go through into much detail as Francis Holland.

Hoping the post brings news tomorrow. It really sucks not knowing and feeling so anxious while pretending that I'm relaxed and none of it matters.

Had expected this stream to explode with letters this am.... DD has one on Wed, and City in the afternoon. Hmm.... well, I suspect it's probably quite good to do two in one day but feels like quite a tall order! At least she'll be warmed up for the afternoon.....but hopefully not over baked!!

Congrats on the interview.

I don't think we've had any post - so frustrating!

It may still come as our post is very unpredictable.

Finally we get post, and it's a no. :(

We knew the group 1 exam hadn't gone as well as group 2, so no surprise really.
