Hope it's gone well/ going well for all those sitting in Reading and Slough today.

I'd just like to ask that you refrain from discussing the contents of the test, including question types, number of questions, timings etc, as there will be late sitters (and not just just in Berkshire, but other regions using the same test).

*now dons mod hat* Any posts containing info with be edited or even removed. If you see a post that you think contains too much information, please report the post by clicking the red ! mark at the bottom right corner of the post. That brings it to the attention of Mods and we can deal with it. Thanks

Aaand chewing of nails whilst waiting for the results.

Deffo worse/ more nervous this year as ds wants to beat his sister's score that she got 2 years ago and go to the same grammar that she is now in.

Good luck to all the other dp waiting for the result.

Boy, can I relate to that! my ds also wants to beat his sister's score, (but she was 3 years ago) and also wants to go to the same grammar as her!

This is going to be a long 2+ weeks!
Any idea when they will give us a definite date for the results? I can't remember clearly what happened in 2014 but I do remember it was available online a few days before the Reading Grammar's.

I think all Berkshire have a date of the 13th October this year. There's been another thread asking this I think.

Thanks Tinkers,

The 13th would be great! Think that's the same day the Bucks should be received.
