Judd OOC Cut-off confusion

Post by anxietykills »

There's something I have noticed on the Judd Website regarding OOC Cut-offs for 2018 entry. The website has 2 links- first one says the cut-off was 395 on 1-March that went down to 393 in Sep., while the second one says it was 400.

http://www.judd.online/admissions" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

http://www.judd.online/page/?title=Admi ... try&pid=52" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I have sent an email to Judd Admissions to explain the discrepancy but no reply yet. Does anybody else on this forum have any more information about this or am I reading it wrongly?

I am well aware the cut-offs can change from year to year but my DS's score is on borderline so I am in a bit of a dilemma.

I can't get your second link to work, perhaps they've removed it already as it is an error?

I know some of the Kent grammars had the scenario for OOC candidates where they had a cut off on 1st March, then it went up immediately after offer day to account for late sitters, and those who added the school late as a preference, then it went back down, so that is also another possible explanation depending on the date of the 400 figure?

Think 400 is the error: that was the previous year's cut off, which stayed the same in April.

Yeah, they've now removed the second link, probably in response to my email query. So it's 395 as of 1-March 2018.

395 was the cut-off for 2018 entry as of 1st March 2018. However it dropped to 393 in due course.

My DS got an offer last year with 396 as cut off was 395 in the first list. OOC went down to 393. Judd is a great school. DS got an offer at Tiffin so finally took that offer.
