Government Non-Selective Schools. (1 Viewer)

[White Rabbit]

Hey, just thought I'd start up a thread to see who goes to Government schools that aren't selective. Just seems that the majority of the board is at either a private or selective school. What school do you go to?? Which Government (NS) School do you reckon is the best?

 

[um..]

i went to one too. it was good. oh and once, i saw a blimp. the end

 

[sukiyaki]

currently at a government non selective.

i reckon cheltenham girls is the best public skoool out there

Im at one and doing just fine. Although if I went back to the beginnning of Year 11 again Id change. Not for a better education just for the more formal, cultured environment.

I'm at a non-selective non-sydney government school and i hope i'm doing just fine!

I'm also at a non-selective non-metropolitan government high school (Albury High) and I think we are given just as much as chance to excel as our city/private counterparts....

supposibly we do...i havent heard anything new bout it but i hope that we get +10 becoz we dont have as good as resources as other city skools do...not that im complaining...


DID ANYONE GO TO THE HSC DAY AT SINGLETON HIGH BOUT 2 WEEKS AGO? NEONE GO TO THE ESSAY WRITING ONE?? IT WAS FAB!

I don't think that's true. However students may be considered as having a higher UAI by some unis when you apply (like if an Albury person applies to go to CSU they get 5 bonus points because of where they live), however I don't think you get extra points on your actual UAI, some unis just might give you more consideration.

I THINK WAT WE DO GET IS +10 ON JUST THE HSC MARK NOT THE UAI......... WELL THATS WAT OUR YEAR ADVISER TOLD US BOUT 3 MONTHS AGO.....I DUNNO WAT DOING WITH IT

 

[braindrainedAsh]

I seriously refuse to believe that. I would love it if anyone had any proof to show that this is true??

 

[Newbie]

dont you want 10 free marks or something?

 

[Brianna]

I AM BEGINNING TO THINK THAT YOU ARE JUST JEALOUS ABOUT THE FACT THAT US COUNTRY KIDS DONT HAVE AS MANY RESOURCES AS U...SO WE GET 1O EXTRA MARKS ON A BIT OF HSC PAPER! I AINT LYING..ME YR ADVISOR HAS TOLD ALL YR 12 THIS OKI..... DEAL WIT IT!

 

[braindrainedAsh]

Umm... I don't live in the city. I live in a non-metropolitan area.

 

[Brianna]

WELL WAT DO U HAVE TO COMPLAIN ABOUT THEN?

JUST BE THANKFUL THAT U GET XTRA MARKS!

 

[braindrainedAsh]

I wasn't complaining. I just don't believe it because I haven't seen any evidence that this is true and it seems a little far fetched. Call me a skeptic...

However, if somebody has some solid evidence to present that indicates that this is actually true I will be pleased to hear it.

 

[Brianna]

PRRFT I DONT CARE....BELIEVE WAT U WANNA BELIEVE DONT BELIEVE WHAT U WANT.... DOESNT WORRY ME!

BYE BYE

..Dunno about the +10 UAI points, but I think that if your from a non metro area, your given acess schemes into Uni, where you can get in with lower marks.. But only a few... just what I heard.
