Yep re : PAN - some of the 96 above him didn't select KES - maybe they went Alcester or Private schools.

As James Dean and I predicted in Oct, AQS for KES has risen.
If 232 rank 97 got in but 231 didn't, that means most of the high scoring boys have opted for KES as they have gone beyond the 120 rank the last couple of years.
It will be interesting to see the wait list score.

Hmmm, certainly looks that way - 221 for Shottery not enough this year either ...kenyancowgirl wrote:As James Dean and I predicted in Oct, AQS for KES has risen.

Had his friend put KES as first choice too? or AGS was their first offer?Rockjames wrote:No re : AQS buuuuuut his closest friend got one mark less on 231 and has been offered Alcester so I guess that makes AQS for KES 232.
Big jump this year.

Apologies if this is a duplicate posting... iPad glitch... In case it's helpful to others. 231 score and 106 rank in south boys. Refused KES ( first choice) and offered AGS. Will let you know in due course where that puts us on the waiting list... Good luck to all x

Thanks Minnietheminx, that's very useful. Looks like DS will be AGS in the morning too. 230 score and 115 rank, KES unlikely for us barring a miracle on the waiting list - at least I'll get some sleep tonightMinnietheminx wrote:Apologies if this is a duplicate posting... iPad glitch...

It will be interesting to see what the AQS score is as DS has a couple of friends on 219 & 218 who have put AGS.
Now, where did I put that whiskey and bar of chocolate...
Fingers crossed for everyone

Just taken this from Brum forum, where there seem to be some big changes in some scores

Nervousmom, the cut off scores for Brum and Warks at so different though aren't they? KES stratford last year was 222 whereas CHB 243! This year has already seen a jump of about 9 scores (from 222 to 231) for KES!
