Will my child get a standardised age score?

Standardised age scores will be available soon. These will appear once enough children have completed our Quest Admissions Part 2 familiarisation tests to generate meaningful data. You’ll be able to see your child’s standardised age scores in the coming weeks.

What information will be included in my child's results?

After your child completes a familiarisation test, you’ll get a full breakdown of their performance. You’ll see:

• Your child’s raw score (total number of correct answers).
• Your child’s timing data – how long they took overall and per question.
• Topic-level analysis – showing your child’s strengths and areas for improvement.

Unlike other tests on Atom, answer explanations, videos, and helpsheets aren't available. This is because children can approach answering the questions in a variety of different ways, rather than by using a set step-by-step method.

My child keeps seeing the same questions. Why is this?

Unlike other tests on Atom, the questions don't change on repeat attempts. If your child retakes a Quest Admissions Part 2 familiarisation test they've completed before, they will see the same set of questions.

You can find everything you need to know about interpreting your child’s test results and standardised age scores (SAS) in our guides.
