im not too sure about the top schools apologies, but good luck for the normo exam! :)

tbh i feel like the top schools should've started interviewing around now too, or given offers if it's for yr11 entry i dont know why the selective hs enrolment board states that offers are released oct-nov, that is false. almost all schools release first round offers in september or at the very...
