I’m in the gifted class too 😭
Congrats on getting reserved though 🔥 but I think the way it works is by the end of t4, if you got no phone calls saying you got accepted the it unfortunately means you’re rejected. Did they tell you what reserve you were by any chance?

And yes, Sydney tech are opening new spots since the school told my parents that some boys are leaving cause they got accepted into better schools or just leave for whatever reason. With girraween results coming out soon, a few Sydney tech boys are sure to make it and you might actually get in!!!

Well just hang in there and if u don’t get a call from the school by late t4 i recommend calling or emailing them and just letting them know how good of a fit you’d be, this could potentially move your reserve ranking higher and you could get in

so have spots fully opened yet? or r the official vacancies by these boys leaving gonna be in early term 4? also do i need to contact the school now, or should i only do it later in term 4 if nothing has come yet, contacting them cant make a difference in the ranking right?

Basically, Youre one the reserve list and whenever a spot is open (usually when a kid gets into a better school), the highest ranked reserve gets called by the school asking if they’d like that spot. If not it moves to the next reserve. While I wouldn’t call them INSTANTLY, I’d definitely wait but if it’s like week 7 of the next term and I still got no offers thats when I would try calling. Although personally I’m not sure if it makes a difference since I’m not the most experienced, it’s definitely worth doing and is pretty harmless.
