Is anyone thinking of doing the hcgcc?

 

[headphones]

Since I am doing year 10 entry next year, I'm worried that I won't be able to collate enough extracurriculars by the submission date. I do have around quite a few extracurriculars from this year but I'm worried I won't be able to find enough comps by the time I submit my application next year. However, I'm confident I can do fairly decent in my sem 1 2026 report and the edutest exam. Will I be able to stand a chance if I don't have enough comps?

I didn't get any superiors this year unfortunately but I didn't really prepare that well with much practice.

Baulko and girra

Baulko and girra

if u got no superiors baulko might be too high bc most people have 3 or more w the rest as high average

a lot of baulko transfers tend to be from penrith / girra asw so getting into girra might help

I feel like I don't have a lot of impressive achievements but I don't think topping my grade will be too hard

good report + good edutest definitely helps as teachers filter through all the students

and living near the school / having siblings is definitely a huge plus asw
