Honestly how can you say PLC Pymble is a waste of time and just because Newington have "hot guys" their school is the best. Also I don't know how you included Leo's in the same breath as schools like Scots and Cranbrook.
But to the point, it depends on the atmosphere you like. Most if not all privates have a traditional, conservative atmosphere where school is the centre of your life.

I found that interesting about SCEGGS Darlinghurst but aren't you guys supposed to be the crappper of the two SCEGGS?

PLC Pymble - whatta waste of time..
firstly, as a few have already said - i think you'll find that most schools have those priviliges (omg i can't spell) in yr 12..
and as for the Pymble comment - why is it a waste of time? i went there before barker and its an awesome school... i loved every minute of my 10 years there!

i dont have half a clue about half of the schools that youre talking about but im all for coed schools. i cant stand private schools. its probably because most of my friends are guys and i would not be able to live everyday with just the female part of the population.
