yes it honestly doesn't matter that much. Its just a tiebreaker if a 2 students get the same results,reports and excs they use school ranking. But honestly it doesn't matter. Just try your hardest

Ummmmm I’m pretty sure school ranking matter a bit more cuz a school would rather have a straight A and a few B student from baulkum hills than someone with straight As from a random public school. Thats js ruse tho.. not too fond of their admissions but last yr I think only a few public school kids made it.. still possible but much harder.

I’d recommend her to do baulko cause that’s where most of the kids leave to go ruse.. much easier too

Depends what ur goal is as at uni but Penrith makes u sit tests to get into subjects for year 11 and if u don’t do well u cant pick that subject.. goes for ANY subject like physics or chem. That’s what I heard from others cause apparently Penrith is toxic and only cares for ranking. Could js be girra propaganda but idk

Ok so I have a higher chnce for baulko because ruse usually takes ppl that already go to a selective school. But then again, ruse opens more spots compared to baulko so idk now...

Idk it’s ur choice in the end but if ur reports are straight As this semester and u can land 4-5 superiors, u could make ruse.. if it sounds like too much to baulko

If this was me again this is what i would Tell you to do:


If you are trying to improve english try use any naplan or any persuavice and narrative and discursive writing prompts. Give them to your school english teacher or anyone in the english faculty you know well. Ask them to mark it for you. DONT TELL THEM ITS FOR HAST. Tell them you just want to improve your english.

For maths and science I didn't really study I just Knew ig.

Im bad at reading comp so i'm the last person you should ask ): But try maybe some icas to improve reading comprehension, since it is all MCQ for reading anyway.

For Abstract Reasoning, try familiarise yourself with the questions and look at the sample hast papers on studocu. Literally everyone gets good in Abstract reasoning as well. SO try get in the mindset of understanding it cause for me, it was extremely easy but I just didn't understand it for some reason, so just practise questions.

At the moment for my English writing I get AI to mark it and give me feedback which I incorporate, and idk my results yet (hope I don’t jinx it) but for my craft I’ve writing assessment I think I got 100%. After reading just one book my vocab and everything improved and I am crazy at creative writing. If it’s persuasive im done for cause I haven’t done that since year 7

I mean maths and science yeah that’s fair but last yr I think I got like top 30% in it, maybe I was dumb but I don’t know

Dw I struggle the same way for reading comprehension but for some reason I found naplan reading sooo easy even when they tried throwing the hardest texts at me, I could still understand it. Vocabulary is my only real issue honestly, cause if there’s a word I don’t know it’s ggs

For abstract Ill lowkey look into the free hast booklets since I use studocu for math papers from selective schools (if u can’t tell already I love math and hate english but im good at English and bad at math)

And then my reports for y8 sem 1, 4A, 4B
Sem 2- 6A, 1B, 1C
(As in core subjects for every report apart from y8 sem 1 math)
Year 9 sem 1 im thinking straight As at the moment but MAYBE a B in history or commerce

My excs should be enough but I didn’t do any of the icas or math comps.

Thanks again for the help because this yr is probably my best chance to move schools
