Oh we'll be taking basically the same test since im doing it at North Sydney Girls'
I did the test at Girraween last year though, not to scare you or anything but...that test killed. I think a part of my soul died doing that test. It's not as straight forward as Fort St's test and kind of tests your "higher order thinking". Best of luck to both of us i guess.
Girraween has the most retarded process I've ever seen, you have to be killer in report and test (like me l0l)or just get in on luck. I've seen people with C's in their reports get in over people with straight A's from the same school, pretty sad really but yolosweg, they can screw their school's hsc rank over.
Da fuq. You're kind of confusing. So you did get into Girraween? Wow good on ya.
Not sure if negative remark.....
Not sure how one attempts to sound somewhat genuine when giving compliments over the internet lol. but seriously, wow. Not being sarcastic (if i sound like it), how you managed to do well on the test, impressive.
Cheers.Sometimes you do better in things that you don't care about, so during your upcoming exam just walk in knowing you have done all the preparation you can (hast doesn't require any prep lel) and beast it. Besides not getting in isn't the end of the world, anyone can achieve a 99 atar at any school. I was in range of a 99 estimate at my old school being top 10 of the grade, now my estimate is 95...... but that's with bludging and last minuting. (I come off as too arrogant
)
So, did you put Girraween as your preference this Year?? BeOh we'll be taking basically the same test since im doing it at North Sydney Girls'
But how sure are you that the people who got c's on their report didn't do well in their test? Maybe the people who got C's were a bit disinterested and now they have the ability to change and do better? How many people did Girraween accept that weren't from selective schools? I think.it wouldn't be necessarily luck to get into Girraween... You need a good report and a good test.
Not sure if I laugh easily or you're somewhat humorous, but you amuse me lol. Thank you for the advice though, will keep in mind. The thought of moving to a higher ranked school is slightly negative though since there needs to be a period of time to adjust to the new environment..Cheers.Sometimes you do better in things that you don't care about, so during your upcoming exam just walk in knowing you have done all the preparation you can (hast doesn't require any prep lel) and beast it.

About 4 kids from selective schools and the rest from private/comprehensive. Yeah I'm pretty sure there was more weighing on the test than the report, I personally know a lot of people who had solid reports but didn't make it. It's kinda ridiculous as the hsc is based off hard work, ie reports being a reflection of this, rather than intelligence or whatever that the hast exam tests, thus I think this selection process compromises the hsc ranking of girraween. In the end it's still a selective and better than about....700 schools in nsw so yer good luck with your upcoming exams.
No, unfortunately not haha. I only applied for Fort st and North Sydney this year. Getting into a better school isn't really the first thing on my mind, i'm just curious to see how I'm ranked amongst my cohort.
I got a phone call for an interview next week. Anyone else?
Congrats ^_^
Oh thank you c: ...have you had any news yet? Wasn't expecting Fort St to be so quick in this department though lol.
lel nope not yet. :3
I wasn't expecting anything from them tbh lol. Well good luck with it though c:
