Finally my son has started talking about the exam ..
He said Hampton paper was the hardest he has done so far (including the practise papers we did at home) .. we did some withington girls, MGS, North London Girls consortium past papers and took QE Barnet exam ..
Fingers crossed ..

Someone I know has had a phone call today inviting her son for a scholarship interview.
We weren't expecting that for our son, just a regular interview letter next week would be marvellous.

My son did it last year and said it was the most difficult exam, compared to MT, City, and Latymer upper. The interviewier was also unfriendly apparently. He was offered a place nonetheless (that we declined). Good luck!

Any news? My son's classmate told him he was invited for an interview. Not for a scholarship interview.

Don't panic just yet! Last year I am pretty sure that letters of Yes and No were sent out in batches by schools... we received ours quite late I think and DS had finished fairly high up in the exam.
