Just try not to be shy or look closed off? Show them ur keen to join the new school

Most likely, they will ask you questions like: What can you bring to the school? What extra curricular activities are you involved in? Favourite subject and why? Why do you want to come to this school specifically? What do you want to do at uni? Subjects for year 11? For agricultural schools -...

I'd say go full steam with as many papers as you can find. Doing actual papers will be far more valuable than textbook questions with the exam less than a month away. Focus on your weaknesses now, and during the actual exam, focus on your strengths. Also, I'd recommend marking each paper you...

Ah had no idea that was the case. Best thing would be jst to stay on ur toes and prepare for interview questions. If the outcome doesn't pan out well, remember that in the end everything boils down to your own individual marks, school ranking, scaling, and all that aside, so don't associate...

Yep I had mostly 90s and 80s in my report as well, which would translate to As and Bs I'd imagine. I ranked 2nd in maths from yr 8 - 10, so that mightve helped, although I heard that they also place some emphasis on teacher comments - can't say if that is true. Have u applied for any other...

I had representative swimming, competitive tennis and martial arts. Thats all. No duke of ed, no leadership, and still got a year 11 first round interview offer, don't be so quick to depreciate your application :) If you do reach the interview stage, preparing for those kind of questions can...

Just the standard extra curricular and academic achievements that them know what you can bring to the school. Have an idea of why u want Baulko specifically, what you want to achieve at Baulko.

I went to Ngo and Sons, then switched to private.

Whereabouts do you live? Kurt, Dr Du and Ngo and Sons are popular options. You could also opt for private if all of those options are too far.

I honestly didn't have many extra curricular involvements. Only had representative swimming, tennis, and martial arts outside of school. Zero involvement with any leadership stuff, no duke of ed, no public speaking, no volunteering, no music, no school clubs. As for my report: maths, English...

There may be some late round interviews handed out, so don't assume it's all over. I had friends who had interviews a week or two after mine which was unexpected.

Hi, My name is Andy and I graduated from James Ruse Agricultural High School last year. I am currently tutoring two high school students maths and science, as well as two primary school students for their selective exam preparation. I am currently looking for more students to tutor as I...

Am i the only one who found s2 really dodgy. I narrowed the answer options down to 2 and then kidna educated guessed which was right. Other sections were alright, and s3 was fine for the most part except maybe 2 or 3 questions.

Overall percentile wise you are set. Ive been getting similar overall percentiles to u and from what ive read around it should be alright. My s2 ranges wildly too, from 37 to 91. Ive also read up on this and ppl who sat umat in previous years say that s2 really all comes down to how u feel on...

any tips for improving s2 last minute besides memorising the emotional vocab? my percentiles for s2 are wild from 37 to 81. Also can those who took the umat last year describe the conditions of the exam hall? how are the toilets? whats the procedure u have to follow if you need to go to the...

Hey Andrew are you the one Mr Mai always raves about hahaahah

thanks for the encouragement appreciated

o no s2 is such a tragedy ty bro
