the prompt doesnt usually encourage something like its really vague in what form you can write in like when i did it in 2024, we could do discursive, persuasive and creative and genuinely everyone who got in, including me had done something different

does baulko open a class asw or is it just ruse?

 

[aaliya]

does baulko open a class asw or is it just ruse?

yep they also do it

 

[Viva_student2025]

yep they also do it

The baulko website says the only vacancies are from students leaving though. I'm pretty sure someone said it seems like they open a class because so many people leave to go to ruse... Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
