Hi
just wanted to know yours was straight third round offer in MAC Rob or it was principal discretion.
From your experience how much are the chances of getting a first preference i.e. Melbourne High in second round as my brother has received second preference as SCHS in first round.

Thanks

curious-student yes it was straight third round offer i didnt get principals discretion !

Thanks
Now I can be hopeful for my brother.
Also, Do you have any idea how much percentage of students get their first preference in later rounds after they get their second preference in first round.

Thanks

hey i just have a question
even if no one from your school declines is there a chance i can still get second round offer to the skl i want??

If the 4% quota has already been filled and nobody declines, then unfortunately no. But if it hasn't been filled yet then yes
Good luck!

im not sure if this is true but i heard from my friend that around 1000 spots are available across all schools but only about 700 have been filled? but it might not be true

Im not entirely sure but I think all spots are given out on the first round and if ppl decline then there'll be vacant spots. But if hypothetically nobody declines then there won't be a second round. But some spots would be saved for principal discretion and stuff

DarkPhantomA

so there wont be second round at all if no one declines????

DarkPhantomA
Nonono that won't happen I mean like if hypotheticallt everyone who got an offer accepts then there'll be no more spots to fill yk but don't take my word for it I might be wrong.
But there's definitely gonna be a second round cause there'll definitely be ppl who declines
Sorry that was really confusing 😭

nah thank youu for explainingg
so it turns out last yr 9 ppl from my skl got in but this yr for round one only 7 offers were given out and ik all of the ppl and they all said they would accept so my only hope is that there will be 2 more offers given out in round 2
did u try out for selective this yr?

DarkPhantomA
Ahhh good luck 🤞🤞🤞
Do u know how many ppl there are total in ur year level?
I got into macrob last year (In year 9 this year)

DarkPhantomA

i js calculated it and only 7 ppl could possibly be allowed in this year
there are 179 ppl this yr so the avg is 7.16😭😭
i hope they round up
but i dont think they will

DarkPhantomA

its 10 oclock they must have come out
hope we all get in
waiting for my pparents...

if my parents js dont get an email does that mean we didnt get it?

reet

what does it mean by the 2nd round offers lasting until 28th of august? like if we didnt get an email today will we maybe be able to get it later?

Chocolates

reet students who got 2nd round offer will have time until say 28th Aug to accept or reject and then 3rd round of offer will come on 30th Aug .
