not many spots for baulko or for ruse, bc i thought there was like 25 ish spots for baulko for year 10 entry
There's only 2-5 spots open for year 10 entry depending on application quality. In year 9 entry baulko opens a new class which is around 25 spots

Hey getting very nervous. Is anyone here did test at JR for year 9 entry? I haven’t received any email or result. What should I think that I am unsuccessful? Please share your one.
I also did the test at ruse for year 9 entry lol. Results aren't out yet, for successful applicants it will likely be sometime this week, and much later for unsuccessful applicants, once the transfer students have been confirmed

do you guys think 3 superiors, a high average and an above average is enough to get baulkho. math reading and numerical were superior. my report was ok. 3 A's 4B's 2 C's. I have a decent amount of awards from diffrent things. What do u guys think
3superiors is pretty solid so you have a chance especcially because math and reading are academic subjects. The report might drag you down because of the C's tho. It also depends on what year ur applying for, like year 9 entry opens a new class(25-30 spots). Good luck!

I swear if I don’t get the results, I’m gonna literally crash out. The schools are actually rage-baiting us. I wish I can get my results early and proceed to the interview cause Ruse is my dream school.

How was your test? Did you find it easy? If you have an idea, how many year 8 gave the test you think. I think it could be anywhere between 100 to 150. Also not all sat the test at JR but put JR as first preference, isn't it. My extra curricular profile is not great (almost none) so I am not sure.

-Ja, test was sort of easy(actually let's not jinx it, it was alright) but I really struggled with numerical reasoning in particular due to the financial maths problems, especially the shampoo one
-I'd say that's about the right number of people, so many that they had to split us into the gym and hall
-It's okay lol my extracurriculars are terrible. I only have music, and some school lunchtime clubs but I don't know if those even count as extracurriculars 😭

Omg same, i've wanted to go to Ruse ever since I heard it was a school(~Year 4 or 5). At first it was because of agriculture but now I genuinely think that going to JR will be a major improvement from my current school(it has facilities, more friends, slightly closer to my home)

Bro same. I remember when I was in kindergarten, my dad would tell me about how great James Ruse is and it just made me aspire to get into James ruse
