Nope

then try to do really good on edu test. You are trying for balko right? Balko will have loads of applicants from people who have good academic achievement, report, excs. You have good amount of excs and have u done any math/english competition beacuse even if you participated or got a credit for that it will still count as extra curricular -- it would look good on your report and better than nothing. Do you also play intruments? If you don't thats ok, js focus on doing super well in the edu test. since your applying for balko, there could be some people in there who have lots of excs, amazing report, academic achievements and getting good in the test however if you get rlly good in this exam then you'll probably get in. That's the type of advice I would give you (I am no expert though).

I have not done any competitions whatsoever so I honestly think I don't stand a chance

 

[saneetaa]

I didn't do any competitions nor do I have any certificates im hoping to make up for this with my edutest results as that holds a lot of weight age

ohhh. In my previous comment I asked if u did nay competitions, I didn't see this! Pls ignore that question!!

Bc someone told me that you can have mid exc and really good edutest results like 5 superiors and get in. Or you can have like mid edutest results and really good exc and get in

Yeah I feel like that would be the case for most edu test/ HAST school. However since your applying for Balko a lot of kids who apply r like gonna be hella smart, so I would also put a second option like sydney girls (unless u already go to there); if you get 5 superiors there then you have a really good chance of getting into sydney girls. (I'm not saying you won't get in btw, I think your pretty smart, im js saying the education school comitte will take all factors to consideration. Still go for balko, js have sydney girls as ur second option or another school unless u already go there)
