The Penrith interviews and reserves are already out so maybe ur chances aren’t that high. Have u gotten a call for an interview or reserve?
+ what year r u in cause it could be different for each year

for which year are they out?

for which year are they out?

I think they’re out for all yrs. I’m yr 9 going into yr 10 and I had my interview with penrith last week on Tuesday. I also saw a couple of yr 8’s at the reception when I was waiting for the interview. But since you haven’t gotten anything back yet, you might still have a chance.
also ur scores a pretty good for entry into Penrith. Were you top of the top 10 or in the middle?

I think they’re might be since school’s generally release results and interviews from yr 11 and then yr 10 and so on. I think most people got their penrith results 2 weeks ago for the successful applicants.
but then again I’m not entirely sure since I’m not doing the yr 11 entry. Hope that helps

Anyone can advise on the process of a school making judgments/ decision?
Student A has 2nd or 3rd choice at a particular school while student B has it as 1st choice. Would that bring student A to some certain disadvantages in the school eyes? Like they will prefer someone who picks their school as the 1st choice?
Also would the recent school you are at be noticed of you applying to other fully selective schools?
