Re: Cadetships 2007 Sorry to bump this thread but I just received a call a couple days ago that I have received a cadetship opportunity due to someone dropping out. Apparently the way it goes is 1st year is full time work and part time uni, and the remaining years are part time work and full...

Re: Cadetships 2007 Exactly the same as me mate :D Got rejection emails this afternoon from those 2 and lost hope that i wouldn't be selected for interview in any of the big4. however kpmg called me 10 minutes ago and voila!

I did the Gothic Genre in year 10 and also had to read Frankenstein and Draculla. Didn't finish reading them but the teacher gave alot of notes on the novel. For Frankenstein you could talk about the idea of nature v nurture, alienation of the monster, the notion of creation is emphasised...

Well since you are attemptinh to come to the school as a senior, you don't have to wear the stupid uniform. Some seniors do wear them during summer time but most just wear the winter uniform. IMO Hurlstone, is a very competitive school and the students there are very friendly. I am not quite...

When you enter grade 11 you don't need to wear those bad khaki shirts and shorts which is a good thing. You can wear a white shirt and grey pants throughout the duration of the year.

I'm surprised i received 93 in history and a band 6. That places me in the top 4 or 3% in the state. I felt the history exam was quite difficult as I didn't really prepare for it. Anyways my marks ranged from 84 i think to 93. So i am relatively pleased with my results.

I agree with the 2 posts above. Once you enter senior school, the School C is irrelevant.

Out of all subjects history. I got 93 for that. For the others i missed out by band 6 by 1 or 2 marks so i am not all fussed. My worst was science and i got 85 for that.

Well i got mine today in a presentation. I got 4 band 5's and 1 band 6.

Lol i don't remember most of the multiple choice answers now. Haven't seen the paper in the last 2 weeks and i don't really care about it. The results are gonna be back in a couple weeks time and it's only the school c, nothing to be too worried about.

yeah great response kido and thanks for clearing the confusion. So it's basically if you get into the 80's in the exam then you would be getting close to or in a band 6 and if you get in the 70's you will get into a band 5 or close to it.

Yes they will.

yeah but i heard from other people that tropical cycolone won't fit in the boxes.

those who receive a band 1 are people who don't get their school c and didn't do their exams. I think there were about 5 in my grade who got a band one. So if you will basically get a band 2 at least and realistically at least a band 3.

i reckon the school is okay but i dont really mind that the school is old. I find most selective schools are quite old but still have a good environment. My school is also only a few years old. I also don't want to do agriculture next year and wanted to do IPT instead but it's compulsory. I...
