  • 2022 Victorian Selective Entry Test Results

Hi, I was wondering where do I find the Melbourne High Year 9 2023 Languages and subject selection. Please, if you are able to send the link to me.

    It's really sad considering how high your results were. Hopefully you can get in next year or something. Keep trying!

      this cant be true, there has to be some way I can get accepted😟😟🙁

      katie The 4% rule? It means that only 4% of your school's grade can be accepted into any selective school.

        how many late offers will they give? approximately how many?

          I think there are 5 rounds this year and 2 have already happened. The other 3 rounds will be very small though, it's only for people who rejected second round offers and there weren't many second round offers. There will probably only be a few students that get these offers.

              Ommahp approximately how many people tho? 10? or even less?

                  katie
                  There's no way to determine but I would say 5-10 for the 3rd round and probably only 2 or 3 for the next rounds. These are just guesses though.

                      Honestly, the only way for you to get in this year is if someone from your school declines an offer to a selective school. That way there's one spot open for someone from your school to receive an offer from a selective school but you'll also be competing against the next people on the list for offers. I really hope you do get in, you seem very passionate and determined to get in and you're obviously incredibly smart considering your results.

                        Ommahp thank you. the funny thing is- I had no training at all for this exam because I did not think too much about it. It was hard and I am still very surprised by the results I received!

                        by the way, which school did you get into?

                            katie Wow, congrats! Did your parents make you do it then? I know loads of people who only did it cause of pressure from family and friends.

                                I got into Nossal High School with not that great scores honestly, I only got 1 superior but I didn't get any averages. I was surprised I got in at all but very happy.

                                    Nutella
                                    It's just a guess but I'd assume it would be around those numbers for the third round. Like most people would accept their offers and roughly 200 people get first round offers. I think only about 30 people would get second round offers, especially for Macrob and Melbourne High. Nossal and Suzanne Cory might be different since most people put Macrob and Melborune High as their first preference.

                                        Nutella thank you! no, I wanted to do it myself. It's because I thought this school I am currently in was too easy for me, so I decided to try out for it. But then I forgot about it over time and I didn't realise you needed to practise for the exam lol

                                            Ommahp that's amazing, congrats!! I wanted to get into Nossal too. good job 😄

                                              Considering your scores it doesn't look like you needed to practise at all.

                                                Is Principal's Discretion not for those who missed a place because of the 4% rule?
                                                From mhs website: 'At Melbourne High School 15 places are reserved for entry via the Principal’s Discretionary Category. Applicants who missed a place because of the 4% rule will be invited by the School to apply for one of these places. The Principal’s Discretionary Category can only be applied when the quota from any one source school has not been reached.'
