11 Plus Exams Forum

So here we are peeps, the eve of knowing (or not if Royal Mail fail to deliver!!) I don't think I can cope with having to wait until Monday such are my stress levels!! Anxiety doesn't even begin to cover how I've felt this week and it all rests on a letter... Fingers, toes and everything in between crossed for good news tomorrow

Are you letting DC open the letters or are you steaming it open first?? x

When the postman came this morning I opened the door as he was posting todays post and said " don't you dare go off sick tomorrow"!!

Much as I would love to steam open first and thus try to ease the blow if it's bad news, DS says he wants to open it. Good Luck!!

I have a horrible feeling our results won't arrive tomorrow- the post is really random in our village

Our postie always rolls up really late I'll be on tenter hooks until 1pm at least. I'm just not cut out for this waiting malarky, no sleep and mega stressy. Sooo praying for a pass, still Walton Girls would be an ok compromise if DD fails.

Good luck honey xx

Luckily we have a good-looking postie! ( Tasty postie- I'm old enough to be his mother I'm sure) Will be a positive pleasure looking out for him tomorrow. My DD told me (finally) she thinks she left out about 5 NVR questions. And 2 VR questions. DS passed with great score 2 years ago. Here we go again! Chin Up Everyone

Also Boopy
we were really impressed with Walton Girls, think that could be a good possibility for us too.

OMG!!! Can you believe we now only have ONE SLEEP TO GO!!!

I am trying to take our minds off it, have bought a DVD to watch tonight (Diary of a Wimpy Kid 2) and he'll be off out playing with his friends in the morning, this way he won't spend all morning pacing the house and worrying about it.

I won't be steaming it open, DS is adamant he wants to open it and I've said he could. We are going out for a meal regardless .

Good luck, I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you all xx

I could puke...... I don't think I will sleep well tonight.

I didn't think I was going to get online tonight as BT broadband has been down all day......

Our postie is normally after midday on a saturday, but last week delivered at 10am so God knows when he will show tomorrow. It sounds as if most of DD's friends are set on the same non-selective if they aren't successful, so that is a bonus (of sorts).


Good Luck everyone, I have my fingers crossed for all of us

Ditto desparado even a big glass of wine is not calming my tummy rumbles luckily DD seems ok and happily playing on Ds - she told me today she will be happy wherever so long as some of her friends are there - hope that is case if we dont pass as she is at a small village primary so only cohort of 16 of which 12 took test Hope our DD end up at the same school and will be happy Good luck to all out there and sweet dreams ***

What a rotten nights sleep, I was up pacing the boards at 4.30am swigging a can of caffeine free coke and practically hyperventilating. The postman best have the letter in his bag today cos I seriously can't stomach a whole weekend of not knowing

Hope everyone gets good news... was annoyed to read on another website that they think everyone on this forum are pushy nutters. Perhaps they should try and understand that some of the other "options" in our areas are unthinkable!!
