Year 8-11 Selective Result Discussion (10 Viewers)

Yo does anyone know whether Hurlstone for sure opens up more spots like 10-15 for entry into year 11, because I spoke to a tutoring company which said that they didn't.

maybe a smaller amount
most schools do 10-15 I'm pretty sure for year 11 but if they open it for all years they might give less spots aside from positions available due to students transferring to a different school

Yeah Idk I spoke to someone about it who went to the skl and they said lonly like 7-8 ppl transferred so my guess is they create like 5 spots for new ppl in year 11.

i go to hghs and its HAST EXAM, for year 8 entry MATHS will include graphs, tables, and just images including with the question. people say its 'scientific reasoning and maths' but dont expect stuff like chemistry and physics, its just maths with these scientific images yk. in order to ace well in hast u have to STAND OUT in writing, like stand out. you can NOT write the basic, to test yourself u have to ask urself firstly 'will other people write about this?' and if its simple and common RESTART youv have to fully stand out . for english u have to know how to analyse and identify and thoroughly understand all types of texts, including poems, short stories, long passages and etc.

depends on what year, my hghs interview was easy it was just like what do u do outside of school, like do you do any extra curriculars, no big deal

Has anyone here tried out or know how many people get accepted (specifically for year 10 entry)?

hey guys for 8-11 selective school admissions is it fine if you put a portfolio only school as your first preference and a HAST only school as your second preference? Do you sit the HAST at your second preference school or what?

Thanks
