I highly doubt anyone will make noise in Yr 11 & 12 even from Mainstream.
Have a weird feeling you went to my high school (does Splatt ring a bell?).
From observation, the top few or so of the mainstream classes perform equal to the selectives (in atar and otherwise). You probably won't see many loud/distracting students in your Y11/12 classes since they tend to avoid the hard subjects that you listed above.

Splatt definitely rings a bell. Yeah I’ve realised some of the mainstreams are actually smarter than some selectives. Thats good to hear, is there any teachers for those subjects that might be a bit ehhh?

The mainstream kids probably won't take the same subjeccts as you
Bahahah I assure you that I'm dogging another school
Yeah you have a point
Teachers have changed these 5 years (as have the syllabus) so really can't say!
I think regardless of what school you go to, you should be learning the content independently - it will be very hard to do well if you just relied on your school teachers. Also, since medicine is what you are aiming for - just be aware that even if you go to Girra or Penrith, every year prob max 2 people get into medicine anyway (and many times, none get in).
In other words, you need to need to top regardless of what school you go to. It is probably less stressful and easier doing in your school

Yeah, to be honest I'm most likely going to do medical science and go the post-grad path, but I'll still definitely try my best on the UCAT and aim for a hella high atarTeachers have changed these 5 years (as have the syllabus) so really can't say!

Aye macfields represent, pretty funny how Minari is pretty much describing our school tho, even our rankings were like that for 2016 and dropped hard during 2018
