Anyone else had their Registration Letter for CEM

Post by Araucana girl »

I thought CCHS were only sending them out today but ours was on the mat when we got home. We are candidate ***/0762 which I presume means that there are 762 girls sitting the exam. Two sittings and we have to bring a photo and completed ID card with her to the test.

Oh okay that doesn't make sense then. I wonder if the first number is the year as we are 14/0762. Wow wonder how many there are, second number sounds like the candidate number then.

could be a reference to the primary school? I did apply immediately it was open (otherwise I would forget to do it!) so the second number may indicate the total number of applicants at the date of applying.

:D :D We applied immediately as well. I think it is the candidate number after the 14 which would mean there are more than 762 taking it - that sounds reasonable given the numbers in past years. :(

We applied quite close to the deadline and have got no 14/881 so think it might be number of girls that have applied, stressed and excited!!!

We are 0605. I'm not sure you can read anything in to those numbers actually. They may just be random 4 digit numbers. I was surprised that it arrived so quickly but also very pleased that I know now what sitting we have and what time we have to be there.

I can't believe we've only got a week till this exam. I am sooo nervous but my dd seems OK actually. I thought she'd be highly stressed but she isn't, thank goodness.

I will be so relieved when this is all over. Then begins the long wait until March and we find out what school we've actually made it into!

I have to start this whole process all over again with dd2 as well! Aaaaargh!

Also got ours yesterday (Thursday). We are no. 0281.

Thank you Araucana girl for mentioning the Photo etc. I actually hadn't looked on the back of the letter and the back of the map to see that we need to bring a photo and for the other details of what to bring etc. ! Lucky it is not me sitting the test!

Just to make sure everyone else doesn't do the same as me!

I did think that could happen. It was only that my dd turned the map over, I too thought it was just a map! It was only on the back of the letter that it referred to the photo card. I think there will be a few last minute panics, hopefully not on the day itself when people turn the card over and realise!

My nerves are kicking in big time - part of me wants a few more weeks, part of me just wants it over!
