Messed up my interview for a grammar school, does that mean I will not get a place?

The only thing I'm scared about is the amount of people they actually interviewed it seemed so many :0


If it makes you feel any better, the Camp Hill schools had WAAAAAAY more applicants and too little spaced so, being the brains they are (sarcasm), they sent a letter to everyone saying if you get the right grades turn up on results day. Vesey has more places to offer than CH and less applicants. You have a higher chance of getting in.

i think they interview most people .... as a guess around 80-90% .... when i went it was packed - i mean the hall was full of teachers with around 10/15 interviews occurring every 20 or so mins...



Nope - i declined it a couple weeks after i got it...it was too far away and got into a better place (imo)


Ive got no chance now! :biggrin: haha :biggrin:

RS isn't unpopular. I have 4 others from my school that have applied. 3 have picked RS. Geology is unpopular though. Anyway, as I've told you 50 times, you'll get in :smile:

the general conservation was good but he just asked weird questions like, how many teeth does a human have? Then he asked what do you think about conservation? then he asked what do you think of stem cells are where are they produced :L

As long as you didn't put your finger inside your mouth to count your teeth you should be OK.
