Did you not check all this before applying to do the test?

Noone can tell you unless you say where you are & what school you are hoping for.
I presume you checked the Bucks allocations from previous years before making your child sit the test?
If not, here they are https://www.elevenplusexams.co.uk/forum ... 12&t=54212

Yes, take a look at your local alternatives because if you're too far from the Bucks border you won't get a place in a Bucks grammar school.

I have the same question. My DD achieved the required score. We live just outside the catchment area, as the crow flies it's just over 7 miles to SHFGS. What are her chances of getting a place based on the distance??
