Year 8-11 Selective Result Discussion (11 Viewers)

[cindicle]

do you know how many people they r interviewing for yr 11 next year ruse

I’m not too sure, but considering theyre doing 10 minute interviews from 8 to 1:30 with a few breaks in between, i’d guess around 25 maybe?? you can go on the booking website and check the timetable thing if youre really curious

guys if i get into ruse idk whether i should go...

I currently go to a quite top private school, and there are always at least 10 people with 99+ atar, but ik my year group is too competitive, and I would never get in top 10, but idk whether its worth it to go to ruse-

girll i would say dont go if your year group is already competitive, theres not really a point bc moving schools is just changing cohorts essentially — i only wanna move bc my current cohort is so bad but if yours is good and very likely to do well, then you should be able to do well too!!

usually 10 to 11 people but will more likely to be accepting 14 to 15 people for year 11 entry next year.

wait so can you get offers from multiple theoretically, but you can only accept one at a time right and you could change it if you get another offer?

yes you can get multiple offers and change later.

But I mean Ruse is also very competitive like everybody works really hard
would you say your entire cohort works very hard or is it like a select number of people? Because usually you would have to be doing very well in your current school to get a 99+ at ruse

 

[Strawberrymilk267]

Has baulko interview and reserve calls come out yet?

I don't think so but they're probably coming out soon because ruse ones have come out

 

[Strawberrymilk267]

Also how many people does baulko accept going for year 10 into year 11?

maybe around 40 people work hard with 200 people in our grade in total
people say that you only need to be above the median (so top 50%) in ruse to get 99+

I got an interview for hurlstone, they called my parents. Has anyone heard anything for Fort Street by any chance?

New principal this year, and the person who used to organise all of the transfers has retired few months ago, so I think it will be different to previous years. In previous years, they are very generic questions, and mine was like 7 minutes. went very quick. have a look at all the past years posts about transfer interviews.

yeah, this is point but wanted to clarify what she meant.

Also how many people does baulko accept going for year 10 into year 11?

depends how many baulko year 10 end up coming to ruse. jokes. but largely true

people say that you only need to be above the median (so top 50%) in ruse to get 99+

only need to be above median. right... so easy!
yeah, i can sort of understand how people from other school might think that.

oh wouldn’t that be good then? Because like in ruse everybody works hard and it would be harder to get over the median.
since you said you’re school is private and high performing it may be better for u to stay there if you’re doing okay or good there
I just wanna say I know a lot of kids in ruse and top performing selective schools that get scholarships to go to private schools so that’s something to think about as well but congrats on getting offered
