Thank you

With that score, your son will be considered for admission since it is above the national cut off mark.
Bear in mind that kings college is very competitive and have more candidates seeking admission, the school itself will determine it's own merit cut off if the carrying capacity cannot absorb all the candidates who scored above the national merit cut off.
To this end, you have to get in touch with the school to know their merit cut off so you will b sure your son is among those that will be admitted at the end of the day.
Also, in case he is not given admission(which I doubt), he will surely be placed in another unity school which can still accommodate that score on merit.
Hope this is helpful enough. Best of luck to him.

my pupil scored 155. which we saw qualified and selected under national merit. I just pray kings college gv him admission
