Is it worth appealing with 109 & 116 (Bucks)?
Posted: Wed Nov 29, 2006 11:27 am
My daughter is out of county and for various reasons we left the decision for her to take the 11+ very late, meaning she had no coaching & just had time to do the 3 official practice papers before the actual test.
With so little preparation we were not really surprised that she didn't quite make it. On ability, however, the picture is different: she's easily in the top quartile for her year at an independent selective girls' school that's ranked about 160 places above the Royal Latin in the league tables.
So assuming that her Head confirms this for the appeal, is it still worth appealing purely on academic grounds?
Many thanks for any advice.
