percentage pass mark
Could any one help please. My child will be taking the 11+ 7th October 2006. I am using the NFER practice papers and scoring is currently 77 per cent. The test will be taken in the Trafford area where children have to complete three papers mathematics, verbal and non verbal reasoning. I have been informed that the pass mark is 353 but I do not know what percentage this is overall and what percentage is given to each paper to calculate the aggregate score. Does any body have an answer to this?
Dear allsaintsp
Unfortunately the standardised scoring system is long winded and complex, no one can tell you what the percentage pass mark is, it varies every year depending on the cohort taking the test. An experienced tutor in your area may be able to give you a very rough idea of the percentage/raw score.
There is a dedicated section for Trafford lower down.
The following link may be useful, suggesting there is no minimum score for each of the disciplines, added together, score taken etc
