I applied but I probably shouldn't have because my Predicted Grades are probably too low. My predicted grades change in October. I should have waited until then. Im in a bit of a predicament.:angry::angry:

None the less I applied for History Politics PTE English Lit.
With my Interview on Politics and my entrance exam on History and Politics.


What about you guys? And what should I do with my problem above!!

I have the exact same problem, but I'm sure that if you get the requiered grades in August you can still manage to get in if they have spaces left. So far I'm thinking on doing chemistry, biology and Spanish but I don't know if it is compulsory to pic a fourth option. Help please?

Hi,
As a current hwsf student I can tell you that predicted grades hold little importance in the application process. They offer you a place based on the entrance exam and the interviews.

Just submit another application form. That's what I did because I changed my mind about one of my subjects and they took my most recent application into consideration. Either that or call them up and explain the situation and ask if they would consider another application from you.
Just came back from the open evening and it was absolutely amazing!!! I think I definitely want to go here! I have applied to do English Literature, History, Politics and Economics.

From experience, don't go to a Harris school.

Nobody likes them.

Seriously? What's bad about them? The only Harris schools I have heard of are Harris Boys and Harris Falconwood, and I thought they were OK. Could you please elaborate?

I can't defend them in any form so far. The way they treat the staff is horrible, and it has an evident effect on your education, a lot of teachers wont last long there. They stress you out so much, it's literally soooo much homework and staying behind for a few hours and all that kind of stuff. The federation are all stuck-up. Poor Lord Harris has no idea what is going on, it's those pompous *******s who are high up making all the calls, ruining education for their own selfish desires.
