    15 out of 15 with 2mins 41 secs to go :j Well chuffed :T

    I think everyone that has given it a go should give themselves a well deserved pat on the back for enthusiasm...I bet none of us would have taken an exam age 11 had we not had to! Well done all :beer:

    Got 13 out of 15 - Got stumped on the code ones. Love the number ones. Not bad score seeing it was over 55 years since I took it & passed!! Didn't see any time though but must have done it under 10 mins as I wasn't cut off.

    15/15 with 3:48 to go. Always assumed the 11+ was more to do with spelling etc.

    14/15 and I didn't look at the time, but was done within time, so not too bad

    i was going to have a go, but just looking at it gave me a headache - so kudos to everyone who did so well! Ah well, I passed the 11+ ten years ago and have obviously forgotten a lot since then :P I call it "specialisation"... I know lots about my degree subject but if I attempt maths I come out in a rash. That's my argument and I'm sticking to it.

    How strange - that's also my argument :D
    .................:)....I'm smiling because I have no idea what's going on ...:)

    Got ALL the English ones right and missed a couple of the maths ones - yet I passed 16 years ago (took it when I was 10) and I got into grammar. Not surprisingly, I was always bloody good at English

    Great. Now I'm ostracised as much as at school. Only words and numbers are my strength, not history, geography, or even literature.
  • 12/15 but I can be forgiven as I am a young (ish) and our education is sub-standard lol!
