How the range is worked out
- Each question has a difficulty level from our Bucks question bank. A middle-level question is one an average Bucks child gets right about two times in three.
- We find the ability that best explains how many your child got right, allowing for how hard those questions were. Half the questions are verbal and a quarter each maths and non-verbal, close to the test's own 50 : 25 : 25 weighting.
- We turn that into a place among the 7,737 children tested in 2024 and read the score at that place off the Council's published score list.
- A score of 121 or more qualifies. With 15 questions the range is wide; a full timed mock narrows it a lot.
Questions
Is this an official Bucks 11+ paper?
No. The questions are our own, written to the GL format the Buckinghamshire test uses, and each one was solved independently by two solvers. The Council publishes a familiarisation booklet.
How accurate is the score?
It is a range, because 15 questions cannot pin down one score. About two times in three your child's level sits inside it. A full timed Bucks mock narrows it a lot.
How long does it take?
15 minutes: verbal 7, maths 5 and non-verbal 4. The real test is two papers of about an hour each.
Do we need an account?
No. The marks and the likely score show straight away. A free account adds the topics to fix first, a two-week plan and every answer explained, and keeps them.
How many children pass the Bucks 11+?
In 2024, 3,046 of the 7,737 children tested (39%) scored 121 or more. Qualifying is not an offer: places go by each school's admission rules.
