All my cousins are in selective grammar schools

Passing 11+ to enter one of these schools indicates you have an IQ of above 110, this means I have been made into a retard due to neonatal meningitis. Any failure I make in life is a result of my brain damage, and thus not my fault.

You don’t need to have a high iq to pass the 11 plus though. You can study for maths and verbal reasoning sections. Even the non-verbal reasoning part can be studied to some extent, and it’s not that hard at all.

Doing the entrance tests to get a scholarship at a private school like Westminster or Harrow is much harder and probably requires a high IQ.

Dunno you're right tbf but if they got in w/o studying specifically for the test then they're probably above avg at least

Yeah that’s true. It also depends on how good your primary school is tbh. Some schools just don’t teach anything and wonder why the kids struggle in year 7 or during exams.

Thats like gymnasium schools in my country, is that the same? Gymnasiums require high grades. But medical vocational school requires even higher grades where im at and i got into it, specifically nursing field which is giga hard to get into but you can have a nurse career immediately at 19yo after graduation
