Any feedback from boys who sat the 11+ at Habs or MT's?

Post by CoolMum5 »

I have just collected a very happy ten-year-old, who is absolutely ecstatic to have completed the 11+ exams!
He just wanted me to say 'Good Luck!' to all the boys he met at Haberdashers' and Merchant Taylors' and wondered what other children thought of the papers.

We have been told emphatically that the English was much easier at Habs and the Maths more challenging at MT!
:D

LOL - that's why I put the exclamation mark at the end - I recognised the irony myself! :roll: :lol:

Emmalulu - my DS is currently playing with the cat (poor thing :( - cat not DS) interspersed with running madly about the house :shock: , texting friends and threatening to rip up any book remotely linked to the 11+. :lol:
Good luck to your son and I hope you get the school of your choice...

Hiya!

Does anyone know if either school let you know if you don't have an interview? Or is it no letter, no interview?
