the Buckinghamshire test was called the twelve-plus and taken a year later than usual.

Originally, the test was voluntary; as of lc=on 2009, some 30% of students in Northern Ireland do not sit for it.

In Northern Ireland, pupils sitting the exam were awarded grades in the following ratios: A (25%), B1 (5%), B2 (5%), C1 (5%), C2 (5%), D (55%). There was no official distinction between pass grades and fail grades.
