The main reason boys were unsuccessful to Habs boys' in the 7+ after Round 2

First of all, it is very important to remember that hundreds of boys will apply to this school to sit their 7+ Assessments. With this in mind, it is also important to note that there are only 18 places available.

So out of these hundreds of boys that apply, 18 will pass their 7+ Assessment at Haberdashers’ boys’.

So if your son passes, this is truly exceptional.

It certainly means that they are academically excellent and advanced and it also means that they are able to communicate and articulate themselves very well.

All boys who apply are invited to Round 1 to sit papers in Maths, English and Reasoning. If you want in depth information about Round 1, please book your Sample Lesson.

Boys who are successful at Round 1 will be invited to Round 2 which takes place in January.

In order to pass at Round 1, you want to be aiming at 85% in all of the practise papers that your son completes as they prepare for their Assessments.

So here it is. The main reason boys were unsuccessful to Habs boys’ in the 7+ after Round 2.

Is is very simple.

They were not prepared for what was asked in this Round.

I of course will not reveal too much here. But what came up was a surprise and most parents that I spoke to after the fact, told me that they simply had not prepared for this.

My students did. Not because I know what will come up but because I prepare for all eventualities (as best I can!)

This is why I truly believe that the highest quality of tuition is such an amazing investment in ensuring the highest possible chances for success when it comes to passing the 7+.

If you’re going to invest your time, effort and energy anyway, you might as well do it in a way that maximises your chances for success.

If you are preparing for Habs Boys’ 7+ in 2025, now is the perfect time to begin tuition.

I will prepare a bespoke plan of action for your son that will take his learning and understanding to the next level. See them begin to really thrive at school and demand more challenge!
