We are currently in the middle of that exquisite hell known as pretest season for 13+ entry in 2015 and it has not been going well for DS. We are in Surrey/ South London area.
Did not get interview for Hampton. Called back for interview at Epsom so must be very borderline. Still waiting for result from St John's but as the word is that they are using the computer test sat at Epsom in place of their own, he will be lucky to get an offer. We still have Reeds to come in October, but could well be the same story.
Not sure what happened, others in his school in same or lower sets have been much more successful, DS just seems to be in a slump.
I would be grateful if anyone could give me any pointers on less competitive options that may still have openings or we are just left with the local failing comp.
