Received ours... though the email said our son would be invited for an interview with details to follow in due course.

We received an email too. Interview date will be notified shortly.

One of the large feeder preps for MTS did not have good results this year.

There has been contact between the prep and the school as parents have not understood where their ds went wrong and have been seeking answers.

The response has been that on average the standard of the responses on the English paper was weak this year compared to the Maths paper. DG

If it’s the same feeder am thinking of I thought they were exempt from the 11/13+ now?

Could it be possible also that the paper was harder if quoting a few did badly?

My son has an int with both and I know his maths isn't brilliant but his English is good. I heard that this year's Habs maths paper was the hardest ever

My DS has an interview at MTS next Monday. How difficult is the interview?

My DS finished the MTS interview. It had lasted about 25 minutes. DS says he really enjoyed the conversation.
We can finally relax.
