what grade are u in?

I'm in year 7 right now, I'm doing edutest for year 9 entry (when I'm in year 8 next year). There's still a long time before the test, but I didn't get in this year when I did HAST so I thought I might need to prepare more.

yk i was also talking to my friend who got into sydney girls right, and she said that she also believed that it was the time management, but she ran into some questiosn which she couldnt solve and drew a squiggle on one of them haha

Ohh lol. Did she get into Sydney girls for year 11 entry as well?

just out of curiosity, what schools do u wanna go to and what school do u attend?

My current school is a private school, and the rankings aren't even released for some reason. I've always wanted to go to penrith high because I live really close to it, but I've also been considering girraween, baulko and james ruse

 

[Viva_student2025]

ye. i was accepted into penrith and girra in yr 6 but anyways, my friend goes there too. i also have freinds that fo baulko and jrahs and they say that there is like an immense pressure to do well. like they bully u if u dont do well

Ohh wow seems like a lot. Just curious, why'd you end up going to mac fields if you got into so many of the top ranked schools? Also have you done edutest or hast for year 9 entry as well?

 

[Viva_student2025]

ok its a long story. i never rlly wanted to go hurlstone but i also lived closer to macfields haha. but anyways, no i didnt do edutest in yr 9, but also, i never rlly wanted to mv schools. I wanted to test where i was at in camparison with everyone else. i have had quite a bit of fun rejecting many offer tho

Ohh ok that makes sense. Thanks for all the help

 

[Viva_student2025]

Wait does hurlstone open a class in any year or is it just when people leave?

 

[cindicle]

this year they opened a class for yr 10 entry and i think half a class for yr 11 entry

 

[Viva_student2025]

do you know how many people leave in year 8 (how many spots are there for year 9 entry)?

 

[w-ww]

hello everyone can I ask a question, how many absences in a semester would actually hinder your 8-11 selective application, like hypothetically if someone's grades were alright absences were a bit high (maybe even like 20) in a semester, what would their situation be at?

Also what if their attendance bounced back in the next semester?

Thanks
