Year 8-11 Selective Result Discussion (19 Viewers)

yes but for year 11 entry there's generally less competition, because the lowest they accepted for year 9 was around 3 superiors considering 100+ students take the test, many from top 10 schools a few years ago, whereas for year 9 because there are less competitors and also slightly lowered admission rates , the range can expand to 2 superiors and lower.

 

[woo_879]

id say as you increase in grades from grade 9 entry, the reliance on your edutest dwindles with a heavier reliance on your extra curriculars and reports, like in year 9 - more edutest, less extracurricular, year 10 - edutest, extracurricular (but more than year 9), year 11- edutest, but extracurricular is very important

yeah i think the new principal is quite new compared to the old principal, because she was more academic oriented. a lot of people previously got in purely through academics, and a large portion barely did any extra curriculars. yeah lol dopierala is quite performative

 

[woo_879]

yeah my friend tried out for y11 and got 4 sup and 1 high average, had mid reports and great extracurricular, and the feedback he said was her reports

 

[woo_879]

which is why i said earlier that asking for an appeal at ruse might be a hassle and a waste of time because my friend sent so many appeals, and they like just rush through it in the last day to get it over and done with. new principal also the reason why edu results came out so late

lol hes just a bit interesting, he's zesty in real life and kind of short
yeah the old principal was also kinda interesting shes a bit yeah a lot of parents didnt like her, now they're waiting to see if dopierala is any good with this years hsc, because he said he wants to bring jr to number one again

lol what, yeah im not surprised atp the board and him probably just selected and then wanted to get interviews over and done with. he could be bit more prepared definitely, hes also surpirsingly interested in extracurriculars and the pepole doing it, quite different from the last principal

 

[woo_879]

yeah and oh wait attendance also lmao, he said 88% not good enough to her, but idk if people reject really late, there might be people getting it like late late term 4, ive heard pepople getting offers until then

ah i can see that
lowk im just scared that nsg will somehow top ruse for this years hsc n then i'll regret not choosing it instead bc the ranks were legit the only deciding factor, otherwise i so wouldve gone nsg

 

[woo_879]

but im already betting like my life savings that jr not coming 1st, might lose 2nd spot too

lolll i mean dw, either way, like youre only gonna be tehre for <2 years, and like ruse is already good enough, for me even though im in ruse, id say id only worry if like my school was gonna go below top 10, plus you're moving from hurlstone so thats a big jump already lol

ohh rightt i've actually never really heard of attendance being a deciding factor and yeah offers are technically open until the end of term 1 or 2 next year i think
