If hurlstone said nothing it means ur prolly on the reserve list as well but I honestly don’t know. Like I think the way it works is ur 2nd pref school can’t reject or accept you until your first pref does..

All speculation tho but Sydney tech kids are leaving so try not to worry too much ….

guys, so im still worried as since week 1 is over, but i havent heard anything back from hurlstone, and no further updates from tech or mac fields (im still on reserve for these) i thought id get something AT LEAST from hurlstone (still havent got my outcome at all from them, 2nd choice) and for tech or mac fields, i thought ppl would start leaving this term thats what everyone says, especially tech as apparently @Smartboiiii called the school and they said lots of techies r leaving for other schools, but no calls from them so far, still reserved, but maybe im just getting too impatient its only end of week 1 tbh... 😅 😭

So how do we add proof of participation in exc? I have a STEM club at school, but I don't have any certificates from it, I only have the offer of enrollment to join the club. Do I just put in a screenshot of the enrollment letter?

yeah you could do that but try contact your school if they can provide a certificate of participation at the very least because that’s what’s usually more preferred

MY 100TH MESSAGE!!!

I heard people talking about some like online Harvard thing, is that any good? I don’t know what extracurriculars I can sign up to because my portfolio is kind of bland right now, just participation in playing and officiating a sport. Would they prefer 3 good excs or like 10 random ones? Btw I also didn’t do the icas or math comps cause I kinda forgottttttt
hehe

I was actually planning to do those but the results come out after HAST and Edutest sadly.... So I won't be able to add them in my portfolio

i go hurlstone and its legit ONLY if people leave. usually around 3-5 spots for yr10 entry. although our school's starting to introduce extra spots but we're not too sure how many it is. (might be like 15-30 openings for year 11 entry???)
