Thank you! Is there anything specific that I should focus on for the questions in general? For example, linking back to the school values.

I made the interview for Sydney Grammar recently and I wasn't sure how to approach the interview. I was wondering if I could get some tips to prepare for it. 😅

haha yeah I think I’ll just listen to how I feel. My bad for bolding the words 😅 I thought it would make it easier to read if i just highlighted the main words.

With the...

Yes, that's true. There will definitely be a 'cap' placed on my ATAR if I end up going to a higher-ranked school. However, when you consider ranking ~30 in a Top 30 school and compare it with ranking 70 or 80 in a Top 5 school, I believe the latter will give me a better ATAR in the end. Correct...

I am starting to get some of my results for the schools I applied for this year and I can’t seem to make a choice where to go if all goes well. First of all, I go to a top 30 private school and currently rank around 20-30 within my cohort of ~250 students. I applied to various schools such as...
