20k on private schools is justifiable, but dropping 5k on tuition per term isn't

expensive private school tuition does not guarantee a high ranking tho. i think my school is a testament to that

its the same with most privates iinm e.g: Kings, TAS, Newington etc. But yeah no even then I think the teaching is pretty mediocre.

Only reason why I went to a priv is bc I missed the hast, and I had no other option. On the bright side tho, I don't need to search around for cocurrics and stuff bc school got it covered.

if you think teaching is mediocre why go to a private school? its better to go to a well ranked public school which has academically capable students if academics is the problem for you in this scenario

all schools have bad teachers tho. they're hired not on how well they teach but how they vibe with the principal/head-of-department/whoever's-hiring. In fact idk how some of my teachers bluffed the interview they're so illiterate

 

[melanie_o]

Oml year 11 is already the DEATH of me smh. Istg I didn’t realise that there would be a lot of individual study (I.e you learn the content and then the teacher will broadly summarise). Also I want to drop 3U English so bad because it’s an afternoon class 2 times a week so does anyone have any advice in terms of if it is a good idea to switch to geography (averaged high 90s all throughout high school) or should I persevere through 3U?

is kurt good? ive heard mixed things about it

Kurt's my number 1 op

But okay if you want to get better at Maths I feel like he produces results
I don't have to like HOW he produces those but he does

But if you go in there and end up failing all his tests at that point he can't save you and he will quite literally give up on you and start heckling you to quit

Also I think he might accept y11 students? But it has to be either by the next entrance test or he won't let you in, I think he for sure doesn't accept Y12 students unless they've already been there since y11 or before
