QE 2017 results out now by email post results here
Posted: Fri Oct 06, 2017 7:43 am
I have edited this post to reflect the updated information given out by QE to parents and students on the tours following the results.
QE added two more boys to each Y7 class starting September 2017 increasing the total from 180 to 192. This was a one off as only some of their classrooms have enough room for 32 boys. The governors will meet to decide if they can offer 192 places again this year. If they do then I would say that 222 upwards is in with a chance and should put QE first if it is their top choice school. 224 was the lowest score to get a place this year.
The historic ranking information for QE boys for the past five years is as follows:
The Year given is the year of entry into the school not the year of the test
Year numbers applying allocation day lowest mark lowest mark September
2018 2400
2017 2233 231 224 (last waiting list position 79)
2016 2203 229 226
2015 1946 226 222
2014 1985 227 223
2013 1631 231 227
As you can see 231 and above has always got a place every year for the past five years on allocation day in March and 227 and above has always got a place by September.
So 227 and above has previously always been enough for a place. However the rise and rise of QE may result in a higher score to get in this year.
The email will contain your total standardised score and a breakdown score between the Maths and the English paper.
If your score totals 220 and above you will be invited to sign up for a working day tour of the school. These slots will go fast so sign up today if you are interested. No extra tours will be added once the tours available are full. Go to the website to sign up.
Please do not post asking if your score will be enough to get in. Read the figures above.
240s and above is a done deal. The score to get in on allocation day is not going to suddenly jump ten marks.
235 and above is reasonably secure.
231 to 234 may be the waiting list this year. QE has overtaken all other schools in the world in percentage of Cambridge offers, 27 in 2017, beating Westminster, Eton etc and their GCSE and A levels results are top two in the country. 27 boys went to read Medicine this year. Is there any school in the country who can top that figure? These figures will result in the continued rise of QE. A relative of mine spent 20k a year for seven years at a top private school trying to get his ds into Medicine. His Y13 A level result lost him the place. He then repeated Y13 at another top private crammer sixth form school in London but still could not get in, His chances of success would have been far greater and his costs would have been a lot lower if he had just spent his money on a good tutor for QE.
Given increased success this year I think we can expect the last score to get in to probably go up a couple of marks from last year. DG
