[Bookie]

you wanna predict sydney high 2006?

 

[Clarebare]

100% of students got band 6 in Latin Cont and Ext. That's either really impressive or an indication of really small classes in those subjects. Not to play the cynic, but I'm guessing it's the latter...

Kinda true. does 10 people a class make it small? but asides from that, the number of Ancient Greek students is 2. and I'll bet $100 it'll be 100% band 6 with those guys. they're ridiculously good.

I'm sure nobody else has a fairer idea of this year's results than you do.

LOL if one student did that subject and he got a band 6, that counts as 100%.

 

[pLuvia]

As I was going to say Usually it's about 1 - 3 people

There wouldnt have been more than 2 guys in that class, like whitecomet says.

Mathematics Extension 1 - Alan Dam, Xingyu Cai
Mathemarics Extension 2 - Xingyu Cai

I guess you don't know the ranks but it's still good that you had so many ppl- and you had 2006ers! Sigh our school doesn't let us accelerate anything except economics- unless you came from a school which you were already accelerated in.

we will never beat ruse.

"insanely motivated and hard working people"... i'm guessing you're talking about ruse there and not baulko^^

Conclusion:
-James Ruse's Success has attracted the best primary school-leavers, with many more on the waiting list, ensuring that it still stays at the top. People are willing to travel. It appears to be the number 1 choice for parents living in the area wanting their kids to be at a selective school.
-James Ruse takes in, at the start of year 11, students from selective schools.
-Competition is fierce, ensuring that everyone aims to be at the top.
-The majority are smart and will assist each other.
-Acceleration of subjects ensure that less subjects are taken in the final year.
-High-scaling subjects are chosen.
-Active participation in olympiads and competitions ensure practice which makes perfection.
-They are money-wise (our school invests too much into upgrading computers and beautifying the grounds.)
-Possibly, there's a link between agriculture and intelligence. Don't ask how.
