11 plus support thread for exams 2024

638 replies

ElvenDreamer · 11/10/2023 08:55

Hi all,
Anyone fancy joining me for for an 11 plus support thread for those yr 5s who are probably just starting a bit of prep now ready to sit exams in September 2024?

State grammar is the angle I'm personally coming from but all welcome no matter if you're applying to private selective, state aptitude tests etc.

This will be my 3rd and final time of going through this and I've found support threads here really useful the previous times.

@Safariplease is that the same facebook group you mentioned on page 1 of this thread?
If not, would it be terribly cheeky to ask for details of the other facebook group?
Thank you!

I think so! There are two Essex groups - one bigger than the other. The one I’ve shared just there is the slightly bigger group with the cut offs. If you search for Essex 11+, the other will come up too.

You can find that easily on facebook (mostly the same group and her own setting) as they want to be easily visible and accessible. But thanks for the heads-up about the tutor and mock-exam marketing

Apparently some Essex applicants can see an offer made against their 1st preference. Worth checking this morning if you have not already.

we are ooc, so can not access what you can right? but can you give heads up how the trend is compared to previous years?

tiredandhackedoff · 02/03/2025 08:00

Anyone have past experience of whether Kent really does wait until 4pm, or whether the emails actually come earlier than that? They said 4pm for the 11+ results too, but they actually started coming in from the morning.

We got ours just before 6pm!

PencilVania · 02/03/2025 10:08

BeJollyNewt · 02/03/2025 08:27

we are waiting for monday as well, anyone else waiting for essex allocations?

We are on the wait for Monday - it's quite likely we will get our first choice but no guarantees... Good luck everyone!
