lowkey easiest yr to get into at penrith is year 10 because they take so many more people than the other yrs. even entering into yr 10 is really difficult, like all the transfers in my yr are still really behind the rest of the cohort bc the teachers assume we already have learnt everything they...

in my grade no one transitioned during the year, and im not rlly sure if theres any more spots, because i dont get the full idea i js know whos coming

I did the HAST last year for entry into Penrith, and I got in. Basically I started preparing by using this HAST practice on NotesEdu, it's like $150 for a test pack, but this basically only helped me for the Abstract Reasoning, the other stuff wasn't really relevant. The HAST is really similar...

Good job! Are you going to accept it? If you're deciding I got into Penrith last year and go there now so I can offer pros and cons.
