King Edward Camp Hill Girls Interview!

Oh hello!... this is like a really late reply but did you guys go to the induction thingy? If so, was it just me or did like everyone already know each other? O_____O

I did! Oh sorry!
I came out a bit downhearted because a lot of the external students already knew each other and people generally didn't want to mingle with people out side their friendship groups so it was scary as i'm super socially awkward
The place is nice and the grades are good it's just a matter of trying to fit in which seems like it's going to be really hard.
Did you get in at Five Ways? If so, did you like it? I'm considering applying there again on results day as there's the option to and if you're successful they interview on the 23rd so i'm considering it in the hope that it might be a bit nicer socially

I get exactly what you mean! I didn't bother to look around on the open day because I didn't think i'd have a chance because they apparently only accept 20-30 people (that's lies there was WELL over 60 by the looks of it) and for the induction I got a really bad impression because like yourself I really didn't like the atmosphere. I mean everyone, including externals seemed to already know each other and it just kind of felt like that if you don't know anyone then it's not anyone's problem- no one will make the effort to talk to you
Yes! The majority seemed quite arrogant (Oh i'm predicted ___A*s) which kind of knocked my confidence a bit and most already had their own friendship groups so I spent the whole day watching the clock and hoping to leave. I mean it's not like I didn't bother to try and talk to people but often it was a blunt one word response.
Oh well done! I didn't even get an interview there so woah, GENIUS! Are you predicted like loads and loads of A*s by any chance?
Aw yay! It sounds better than Camp Hill to be honest. I mean it's all well and good going somewhere with great results, but if you don't like the place or you don't end up making any friends (that might be the case with me because socializing is just a no O_O) then i'll just end up edgy and I won't perform my best anyway so
It'll definitely be worth it! And i'm definitely definitely going to apply; I loved it when I looked around, just a shame that my predictions aren't too good though because it's interviewing that i'm good at- hopefully when I have my results though I might be lucky enough for an interview

Hi, it wasn't all that, I think King Edward schools are overrated to be honest, I haven't got anything from Camp Hill, but I've received a conditional from Five Ways. I'm not sure if I'll go, seeing as Five Ways are also King Edwards...I just don't think they deserve all that bowing down tbf. What about you? Did you hear anything?

yeah, i got accepted into the sixth form, the interview for Camp Hill was not so bad... but thing is i want to go there

Are in you at Camp Hill now?

I live literally 5 minutes away from the school and my younger sister goes there; it's a brilliant school and you get lots of competition but that you'd expect - it's one of the best grammar schools

nope but i would like to this September and yeah i know it is tough, but hopefully that will motivate me to study more for my GCSE's

Aha I see; indeed it is tough haha. My sister goes there (she got in this year through the 11+) and there's a bit of competition!! Oh yeah, work you heart out to get those grades for GCSE's What are you taking?

And very very best of luck!

Thanks I'm hoping to take Biology, Chemistry, Maths and History

You're welcome Oh wow, hard core subjects! History is quite a bit of work from what I hear because of coursework and the amount of writing you do but the work for Sciences (Especially) and Maths is quite a lot; you've got to keep on top of the work and revise as you go long, that way, it'll stay in your memory for a long time I take only take 1 science: Biology and that's a lot of work in itself

yes i know but i feel kinda prepared for whats to come, as for history its my favorite subject because the content's pretty interesting, maths even though i don find it easy, i like facing new challenges and stuff

so where do you go and what subjects do you take??

Hi....
so I got an interview for king edward camp hill girls on 5th March and I just wanted to know if anyone else goes there who has applied externally as I would like to have some tips on the interview...what do they ask? Are there any tests? Do they ask questions from the GCSE course?

thank you any advice would be greatly appreciated!
