Ronaldo i only put macrob because i want to go to an all girls school, i've been in all girl classes since grade 3.

    Tas wait ive been going to NQT since year 1 too... LOL

      mizi i currently go to year 8 special classes @ NQT, but id argue just looking online for sample tests would be much helpful, just revise the year 8 math curriculum, expand ur vocab by reading and just finding websites that teach new vocab. As someone who did go to the same tuition for years, i think you should be slighty set, though i wouldnt depend on it & would try to study as much as possible, unless u already do well in school & r confident in performing above your cohort (if there are others trying out).

      ALSO! i read ur only trying out for macrob, but id still recommend trying out for other schools like nossal, as you can always decline offers to other schools if u still don't want to go to them! :

        Tas I learned about this school a few months ago so it was quite late, so currently right now i'm using exam success for verbal, quantitative, reading and maths which has helped me and I also go tutoring (which I just started like 2 weeks ago) but tbh since theres only a few weeks left i've just been cramming everything at the moment and praying I get in macrob.

              mizi oh i also do the nqt yr 8 selective. i do it online, maybe we've met?
              Also, thanks for the tips, i'll consider them.

              Since term 2 of 2023? I guess it's almost been a whole year of tutoring for me now.. 😭 lots of practice tests and self studying as well

              Miio same i've been so nervous its crazy 😭 I also just realised my venue just said Melbourne and nothing else so I don't even know where my venue is 😭

                Miio omg really thats like 45 mins away from my house 😭 but they said the venue would be near your school and my school is in dandy but I live in northern suburbs 😭

                  tuliplover oh my gosh 😭 I live in the northern suburbs too and all the selective schools are so far away. Dandy😭. good luck getting to the venue the traffic is probably crazy

                    Miio that is so true the closest school near me was macrob 😭 and thank you, the traffic will probably be so bad but hopefully not 😭 (and once again good luck! I hope we both get in hehe)
