Have you gotten them yet, I’m still waitingLadies and gentlemen, the girraween websites states that all letters were sent out via post yesterday, now we await for it's arrival.
Have you gotten them yet, I’m still waiting
I haven't received them just yet, I'll keep you notified.
Lol that happened to my brother last year. Congrats!I got an offer from Baulko for yr 11 entry today. Weirdest thing is they sent me the rejection letter like a couple days ago lmao
It can take a few business days for the letter to arrive especially if you're living further away from the school, it give it some time.Hey guys has anyone who chose girraween as their first preference gotten the letter back yet? Personally I’m applying for y9 and I haven’t got any letters back from girraween at all so I’m considering just emailing the school because this is the last day their office is open. Am I the only one in this situation? I’m going to email them at 12pm
Aaaaaand I failed Sydney techps: this is for y9 entry
Okay so my parents called Sydney tech and Girraween (I had 1st pref ruse 2nd pref girraween and 3rd pref tech) and Girraween said it’s coming out by mail and the delivery could take some time. Sydney tech said that anyone who chose it as first preference already got their message back and anyone who chose it as a second third preference should get their results by email today regarding y9 entry. Year 9 is the only delayed one so if you’re in any other grade applying for Sydney tech and haven’t got a message back youre either reserved or didn’t make it. Hope this helps![]()
Yep, i live in girraween but i still havent gotten results back so it should take a while. sometime next week? i knew girra reuslts would take a while but not this long.It can take a few business days for the letter to arrive especially if you're living further away from the school, it give it some time.
How about extracurriculars?also btw for those who didn't get into ruse, my friend who applied said that the selection board was looking for attendance and reports (primarily all A's), apart from the EduTest of course, which takes first priority.
I was planning to reappeal for Sydney tech since I already know I’m not worthy of ruse just yet.. reckon they’d look into it?also ill just put it out there, but a few of my friends were really sad they didn't get in so they reappealed. just know that reappealing almost never works, because the board themselves say a lot of people reappeal in like dozens, and that's the time that they are busy hosting graduation parties, etc. so they just rake through all of them without looking too much into depth unlike what they did on the first review, like they'll briefly look through your reports, particularly your grades and attendance. but still, there lies no harm in trying to reappeal.
Makes sense, personally I only got one extracurricular (soccer) but I’m really good at it and I ref it so I think that’s enoughI suppose so, my friend didn't do much extracurriculars though, like in the current year of taking the test, but he had like achievements, up to a national level. That being said, I don't think national level achievements are going to seal the deal obviously in this case. What I would say is have around 3-4 extracurricular activities in school to boost your chances, participate in competitions, because even if you do just get a participation certificate, it shows you're well engaged outside of school. though i would say that you should perform quite well on the edutest like 4 superiors, and your attendance should be high. if its low, then there should be an explanation or proof of evidence, so if you do end up having days where you are absent, make sure you explain it because they scrape through your reports thoroughly.
