Hey guys. This might not be answerable, but what percentage should we be aiming to get in the bond assesment papers for it to be considered a "pass"? Just need a guide to know we are doing the right thing......

Son is aiming to do 11+ in September....


Thanks. Nick

Which area or school you are aiming at? It depends on which school you are targeting?

We are looking just for the average pass in Kent, not the super selective schools like Judd etc...

I would be interested in knowing as well if possible. DS will be writing the test next September. I was looking at DGS, Judd etc as well

Thanks

I am in the bucks area and not really know about Kent side of tests. However, bond is reasonably easy, I would say aim well above 85% to be on the safe side. But like I said before, I am not in the Kent area.

I would say more than 75% too, bearing in mind they will be under pressure on the day they need to be confidently getting high scores at home.

Hello,

Definitely nothing less than 85%. This will defintiely get a place at DGS if local (going by previous record).

Hi all, are these scores with timing too?
