Sydney Boys Application! (1 Viewer)

[Kazooker]

Right now I'm currently in Year 8 at Sydney Tech, and i want to get into Sydney Boys, but the problem is that I don't know how much of a chance i have on getting in. My report (in my opinion) is alright, because i got 5 A's and 4 B's in my yearly last year, and this year is the same, but i did not get an A on any of my main subjects. But a problem i have is of my performance in academic competitions, because i do not have any exept Naplan (over the course of year 7 and 8) which consisted of all in the triangle exept for writing. And to give you a few of my major achievements, i got athletics age champion for both years at STHS, captain of both of my sports teams, i was in the yr 7 and 8 debating teams, and i got an academic excellence award in year seven. Not mentioning anything else, but do YOU think i have a chance in getting into SBHS?

UPDATE: JUST GOT OFFERED A PLACE AT SBHS, THX TO EVERYONE WHO CONTRIBUTED TO THIS THREAD!!

Any answers are appreciated

Can confirm, pretty much 100% of the Year 9 intake for my year are from tech.
@ OP I'd say you have a fairly decent chance at making it into Sydney Boys, the school places a great emphasis on extracurricular stuff when considering applications and your past achievements should place you in good stead.

Yeah I'm Asian (half chinese and half singaporean)
