Hi,
I'm currently in yr8 but have just received the application rejection for sg (sydney girls, entry into yr9 2026). I find (after doing the process twice) that i always struggle with the edutest. Sg is my dream skl so im going to try again for entry into yr10 next yr (when im in yr9). I haven't gotten my edutest marks for this yr back but I have my previous yrs ones. These are pretty bad and I know they are, I kinda just winged it and last yr i didnt want sg as much as I do now. Results for last yr are:
Ability test verbal reasoning-high average
Ability test numerical reasoning-low average
Achievement test reading comp-superior
Achievement test mathematics-low average
Achievement test written expression-superior
If u couldn't tell I struggle with math the most in these circumstances. I find my portfolio to be strong (zone cross country twice in a row, dance international summer schools, math Olympiad top 10% and top 25% in all of Australasia-have medal to prove, good reports, no marks under 90%, went to OC-I think 2nd in state or sm like that, and I currently go to a selective skl but it's only part selective-I'm in the selective stream tho, debating, public speaking medals etc), I just rlly need to study hard for the edutest. I find the timing to be rlly tricky and if im right thats the point. Anybody who has made it into Sg or a better skl and has good edutest results what did u do to study, any practise tests etc. I personally think the edutest practise tests are a scam, they are way easier than the acc test.
Thx for reading and I rlly appreciate ur help!!!!
