Harrow pretests

Dear all, does anyone have experience or knowledge on the Harrow pre tests? My son is due to sit them this Oct. We feel under prepared (left it late and no help from son's current school) and not doing too well in the Pre test plus tests online.. can you still get in with average Marks? Anyone know if the tests are still going ahead as planned?

Hi Indigo1712,

Thanks for posting - we're not able to offer any useful insider tips sadly but we wanted to say hi and give this a bump for you.

Good Luck with the test

My son did the Harrow tests too... he had a really fun day and loved the interviews. I think they did a great job of helping the boys relax even though they were all so nervous. How did yours get on?

My DS did the test overseas. He found VR was hard, able to finish only 80% of the paper. He was luck enough to have 2nd interview in the end of Oct. Dr Sie mentioned in the online Q&A the result will be released in the first week in Dec.

Hi, does anyone know how soon a school will let you know if you were successful in the Pr-Test stage?
