What school?

if you’re in year 7, and you’re in a non selective school with a ranking lower than 60 or so, you have good chances for year 9 entry into girra, Penrith, Baulkho. You do have some chances for Ruse, but it’s higher if you’re in a <60 ranked school. Doing the edutest/hast in year 8 for year 9, is the biggest transfer opportunity amongst all the other years

I don't exactly know the ranking of my school because it isn't publicly available for some reason, but I'll definitely try for one of those schools next year. Would girra have a higher chance or Penrith? (for yr 9 entry)

 

[woo_879]

I’m not sure but I think both schools open up a class of 30. If anything, I think you should apply for Baulkho, girra, and Penrith because I’m pretty sure they all open classes or at least two of them do, and your chances are high there regardless of school ranking especially for the latter two. But that also means you have to take two different tests: the edutest and the hast test. I think taking both tests are worth it but you might not find it convenient

[Smartboiiii]

Damn I failed Girraween as well

 

[Smartboiiii]

I got overall like top 30% (barely in the middle column) cause I sold on the reading and writing

 

[woo_879]

its okay, you still have time to try out for next year, you're in year 8 this year right? or year 9?
