Also if I have some really good extra curriculars will it make up for my bad grades. I'm prob gonna end up with C's for most of my subjects lol and maybe an A for DT and business if I lock in.

Idk I’ve seen ppl with Cs and Ds get in so I think you’ll be alright

but is it cause they had really good extra curricular tho. Cause I wanna do commerce which might be a bit more competitive

Lowkey don’t know maybe just try getting good in business just in case but I’m not sure

Yeah I'm gonna try and get an A but that means I have to get an 87% on the prelims which is hopefully doable

I'm not even sure they look at the extracurricular statement. I got chatgpt to write mine for me cause I was so not bothered to write it.

Ask chat to humanify it

This was back in 2023 when ai checkers weren't as good, or they just didn't check for ai in general. Fill it out properly, obviously, but I think the extracurricular statement is more of a tick-the-box requirement than something they actually rank applicants on. That being said, I'm not entirely sure how the extracurricular statement works so don't quote me on any of this. I just had some volunteering stuff I did through school, and some debating stuff on mine.

This is what it says on the website:

Applicant must demonstrate each of the following qualities through at least two of the activities (activity examples are listed further below): Leadership: mentorship, coaching or leading a team, collaboration and teamwork skills, empathy and self-awareness. Service and community engagement: positive benefit to others and active engagement in the school, local or wider community. Contribution and commitment: genuine connection with your chosen purpose, persistence and dedication to manage self and/or work with others to achieve a goal. Initiative: independent thought and action; ability to anticipate needs. Self-efficacy: self-awareness, personal learning and development.

So just make sure you satisfy the minimum requirement and have at least two of these and I think you're good.
