Cut off score weightings

Hi,

Does anyone know if it matters how the scores are made up? is the final score considered or do they look at how much of the score was Engligh/VR and Maths/NVR?

My DD scored higher in English/VR and slightly lower in Maths/NVR.

Do they look at overall score or breakdown when making the offer of a place?

Thanks

As far as I am aware, it's the overall score that counts.

The breakdown is not even used to decide the last child in on tied scores - that is done by considering the distance from the school.
