My 2025 school report only has 1 B in music and the rest are A's, I also currently study agriculture and I have an A in it as well, so I think that's pretty good for Ruse. However, my 2024 reports aren't as good (a few more b's).
My 2024 NAPLAN is all in the exceeding bracket with grammar & punctuation and numeracy being in the triangle.
My 2022 NAPLAN is good except that my writing is below the national average in it.

Guys can someone help..
im applying for year 9 entry into James ruse, girra and tech (in this preference order) and I received my letter from ruse on Thursday (I failed 😞). I’m just wondering when the results for tech and Girraween are coming out because some kids in my school are saying they got interviews from Sydney tech on a Google meet call. It makes no sense cause im the hpge class and the guy that allegedly got in is pretty dumb. He does have a lot of extracurriculars.

Sorry for the sidetrack but I was just wondering about that mainly and I’d appreciate if someone helped me (and help me get in next year lol)
