11+ GL papers

DD is sitting 11+ this September and has been getting 75-85% mark pretty much consistently in the GL assessment packs. She is aiming for a super-selective grammar in Kent.

Does anyone know if she's doing ok or does she need to get higher marks to have any hopes at all?

If it’s super selective depending on her age I would be aiming for 90%. As if born early in the academic year will need to perform more strongly than someone born in June/July or August etc.

It is a relative age adjusted standardise score not percentage matters, so depends on the specific superselective. Is the applicant to PAN ratio 3:1 or 6:1 or 10:1 or even higher? It varies a lot. Also GL assessment sample pack is towards the eaiser end compared to the actual test, and time allowed is different.
