Want tips, and want to know whether they have bias to selective schools students such as FSHS, GHS, PHS, STHS and CHS.

Also want to know past writing topics.

Schools don’t care about what school you come from. Only how smart you are. There is no bias.

My report isn't too good (for some subjects), but I have many extracurriculars. I hope I stand a chance against other selective students (I've been told Caringbah and Sydney Tech Students take most of the spots)

They care about the core subjects the most so won’t matter much. Plus, the exam is always the most important.

The reason why they take the most spots is probably because the most amount of students try from those schools than any other school. Makes sense since they’re relatively close to each other.

Whether you stand a chance is impossible to tell. It depends on what you get in the test they do that is the biggest defining factor.

I got Cs and Bs on useless subjects like VA, Music and all, but this yr for SBHS they short list the ppl then call for the test, also are you trying out for any school?

The report decides whether you get in the test, so if you get in the test, and do well, you'll most likely get in.
