Transfer Test AQE 2015-2016 *NEW THREAD*

Top_secret

Yes folks totally on the same page as you all. My DS also has a cousin sitting one of the exams as him and although I try to convince myself it's not added pressure it is. He also is in a class full of high flyers just the luck of the draw so can't help comparing his scores which I know us wrong although he is holding his own but my worst fear is and this only applies to the gl (which is his 1st choice) is he keeps putting answers in the wrong box and sometimes he doesn't even realise he's done it because by some miracle he corrects himself after putting 4 or 5 in the wrong boxes. Totally stressed as he's so capable but so clumsy �������� pass the wine

Good morning ladies! Only one week to go Eeek!! I think DD has hit the can't be bothered anymore stage too, she's sick of it at this stage as am I!!

I actually avoid talking to other parents about aqe in real life, it's only on here that I really vent! The amount of people who've asked me outright where my daughters scores are sitting! I would never ask!!

I do think DD is secretly worried about it though but is not letting on. I ask her if she's worried and she tells me she's absolutey fine but I've noticed she hasn't been eating very well this week so wondering if she's anxious? Has anyone else noticed changes in their kids? I would really hate to think she's fretting!! Xxx

DS isnt sleeping very well - taking ages to get over - still walking floors at 1am this morning What if that happens next Friday night !!

What do you think is borderline ??

I was told to add around 20 onto average percentage score to guess approx AQE

😭. What do you mean bobs - to try and calculate score

Yes !! - if you take the last 3 papers done, then as AQE would do take two best percentage scores, then divide by 2 and then add on 20.

For Example.
75% 80% 78%
best two 80, 78. Add together s 158, divide by 2 is 79 and add on 20 - this would guess AQE of 99

I really dont know if there is any truth in this though !!! - remember too AQE adjust for age too so that may mean a couple of marks depending on birthday

None of us really know.

It's so confusing
