No I don't really understand that either. Maybe someone else will shed some light.

I think the 20% quintiles mean that the kids result is not their actual score. It is just a mark in relation to their rank.

So what exactly does a score of 119 mean? I wish I knew how far down the list this makes my daughter, any ideas anyone? Do you think AQE will ever give us more detailed info?:(

A score of 119 means she is a star and go to whatever school she likes.

119 is a fantastic score and would put your daughter up there with the top marks. You shouldn't have any worries at all for a 1st choice place
