acedemic_achiver I got sup in SR and math, above average in NR and science report. so yeah u right.

Sleepy

also anyone who got in last yr, what were all ur achievements/extracurriculars??? Were they at like state levels and whatever?

eeee

Sleepy this might sound bad but trust, glaze your extracurricular (even my JAC tutor told us too), basically make even the simple ones sound rlly good. I put swimming, tennis (even though I don't do these sports professionally nor competitively), piano, clarinet, interschool math games rep, Chinese + advanced math coaching school (idek why i put this) + 2022, 2024 council rep

eeee

Guys if you feel like your "below average" please don't stress, I only got one sup, and the rest were above averages and average, ik some people that still got an interview and/or got into the school without SUPS, + when I was creating my resume I had NO 'science' related achievements/extracurricular. soo yeahh, just smt I wish I got told

good luckk, I'm sure you all did fine

Cartick20 theres also a 3 percent cap on the amount of students taken from one cohort. The person ur talking abt probably js tried out from a competitive school.

shanmukhi

aypricott oh i thought it was just the top 600 of ppl doing the test get the interview. r u sure theres a 3% rule?

Cartick20

aypricott so what do u think would be a good or minimum score to get you in

shanmukhi "More than 5000 students sat the entrance exam in 2024 for the 200 places on offer in Year 10 (100 males & 100 females), where a 3% rule applies, stating that no more than 3% of the school's Year 10 cohort can be part of a single school. There are also a limited number of places for Year 11, with the number ranging from 30 to 40 students, depending on the cohort size. Typically, more than 400 prospective students apply for Year 11 entrance admission. The 3% rule does not apply to Year 11 entry."
