Get in with either really good academic records or really high sporting level. The imports in my grade are insanely good sportsmen, but don't have a great report.

Hmm.. My academic is pretty good I guess, Not really that high sporting level.. But I do play an instrument at an high level. I guess I've got nothing to loose in applying.

hey guys,

I applied for 4 Selective Schools for year 11 next year including:

NSBHS
Girraween
Normanhurst Boys
Penrith High

*In that order

My report for last year, semester two had A's for Maths, English, Science and Commerce. B's for the rest.
This years semester 1 report had about 3 A's and the rest B's

So all up it was:

Yr9 :
A's- 4
B's- 4

Yr10:
A's- 3
B's- 4


The list of extra-curricular activities that i included,

well its just my manner really, no offence intended. seriousli, iv been through these things b4 and u should onli really include the big things uv done, i.e. the most important and write about them in depth in ur resume. once they see that the resume isn't all blank, they dont care nemore and then they look to see in what specific areas u can contribute.

forgot about the music thing and some others which seem dodgy and write more fully on e.g. ur cricket and ur other big stuff like the polic relocation thing
