8+ anyone?

[user17304]

DS doing KCJS next week...nervous !!

Also wondering why it's so quiet this year for both 7+ and 8+, we did 8+ today at KCS, how's everyone did?

@moeyland DS found it hard, not expecting much. how did yours find it.

DS found it okay, comprehension able to finished but writing without the ending, I can only hope the quality was okay which part your DS found it hard?

@moeyland he said math part 3 was tricky and he cudnt finish the writing part :(

Yup heard the same! All the best and fingers crossed for Wednesday 🤞 is he doing SPJ and WUS as well?

@moeyland still not sure about WUS and have to decide next two days

All the best tmr 🤞

@moeyland and to you. no luck for us.

Westminster changed their format and we have no clue at all... what is a grammar test???

@sherry778 sorry not doing that one. I suppose it will be an english test - punctuation etcetra

We are doing it but no clue as well.... seems that it's a trend to change format this year

@moeylanddid your DS get call back from kings

Yes luckily he did

nice congrats

Any idea how many boys had been called back to second run?

Thanks, but not the end yet good luck with Spj if it's your next round! 💪

No clue but hopefully able to tell on the day?!

When is the KCJS assessment day (this year), just trying to work out dates for next year.

DS said 4 groups of 10 each in 8+

Only 14 boys will be admitted...such a low possibility...

yeah 1 in 3 post interviews.

I was talking to a few parents at the Activity Day who seemed to be very plugged into the system/knowledge because their kids went to Squirrels.

Approximately 120 kids gave the written assessment for Kings 8+. So that seems to be the size of the pool this year.

So 1/3 left for each stage.. hoping to know DS's written ranking..,

@sherry778 - did your son have the invite for activity day/interview as well? Yes, looks like 1 our of 3 at each stage is pretty standard for the top 3 schools in both 7+ and 8+

Yeah we have attended activities and waiting for the interview part next week... finger crossed...

I did read somewhere here on mumsnet that King's gave the tier (0-25%/25-50%...) for kids in the 7+ stage. Hopefully they do the same for 8+ as well.
