    Year 8-11 Selective Result Discussion

    Ok - I see where your coming from. It's just that although your academics and extracirriculars don't affect your test itself, they do SEVERELY, and I mean it affect your potential denial/acceptance into a school. This year, I was downgraded from an acceptance to a reserve just because my report...

    Year 8-11 Selective Result Discussion

    yeah i got into yr 10 penrith this year. But there is one point of yours I'd like to rectify - most selective schools on the HAST list do make an extra class around Year 9/10, which is why there were way more than just 20-25 spots allocated this year.

    Year 8-11 Selective Result Discussion

    Alright, I think I get your question now. Here's how spots (to my understanding) are distributed after HAST and Selective results: - Available/Additional Spots: Year 10 and Year 7 entry have a new class arranged.
