That's definitely invasion of privacy, the school has no business knowing what students are searching up at home.

Ommahp There's no way, even if that's what it's for, it's going way too far. Like even emails and all messages??

Exactly. I pray it's just during school hours to make sure no one's searching up anything inappropriate. Knowing everyone's text messages is just creepy, like why would they need to know that?

monket Might be something about this in the Geneva Convention lemme check

Edit: I don't know if this applies to Australia but according to a random post on Quora it's illegal for schools to track what you do at home if they have no reason to.

Hey I’m a current Nossal students and cant confirm that this is actually the true case. I did check and apparently our school does have this security app installed but not at that extreme level. The main social platform that nossal uses is ‘Microsoft teams’ where you can communicate with other students. And I have seen much worse things than ‘that was annoying’ for sure with no real consequences. Although they did say that inappropriate messages will be flagged ( but only on teams ). There was a small discord scandal but I think that was from other students flagging it to teachers. In term of using ur laptop at home, they are quite lenient. Most of my friends have games such as Valorant minecraft etc on it. (Ik some friends who literally play val during class) don’t stress too much about this (it’s really not that bad) but if you have any questions be sure to ask

justaperson_ Welp, maybe the school just doesn't actually check it too much. It is actually being used on the software though, Nossal apparently wrote a message to Saasyan Assure and it's actually on their website! https://www.saasyan.com/how-we-help/school-it You can scroll down and see the review Nossal wrote

Ommahp I read it on the Nossal website :*)

monket damn. I think what you search up will only matter if it puts you or someone else in danger. Such as SH or SA. I wouldn't worry about it too much.

I am also wondering how I got rejected... my scores were:
verbal reasoning: SUPERIOR

This year there are 5 rounds of offers. The first two were in September, but the third round is Wednesday, October 19th. I'm not sure when the 4th or 5th round would be though.
It really depends on which school you go to, if your school has a lot of competition and less spots, then your chances would be lower than if there were less competition and more spots available. I definitely think you have a pretty high chance of getting in if the 4% mark hasn't been reached.
Good luck!

katie damn my friend got in mhs with 3 sups 2 highs

katie

for those who got in, what were your results?

katie

Nutella

thank you so much! can I ask what your results were, since you got in?

also, my school is a very very small school. there are only 52 students in our year level and I'm pretty sure only around 10 people applied for the entry exam. i know 2 people got in but im not sure with the rest.

katie

Nutella

wait, so does this mean getting in is really based off other people's results from your school?

is it 4% of ur school or year level?

Nutella

katie
I got the exact same score as you!

BaconTastesGood

katie year level

BaconTastesGood

katie and im sorry to say this but pd is ur only option since 2 people already got in from the regular test because of the 4% rule

katie
Correct me if I'm wrong but I'm pretty sure you aren't applicable for a Principal's Discretion if your school quota has already been met. School quota meaning the 4% rule. If you have 52 students in your year level, only 2 people can get into selective schools and you already said that 2 of your friends have gotten in so unfortunately I don't think there's a chance you'll receive an offer.

katie

btw are there such thing as interviews

BaconTastesGood

katie thats pd

katie

BaconTastesGood oh ok
how do u get pd then

BaconTastesGood

katie you have to do something outside of school but I would have thought that you wouldn't need pd because 2 if my friends got first round offers into mhs with those scores
