Hello, I was just wondering (if we pass the exam and get an interview) how much of an effect school reports and special awards will have on the result?
My school report last year isn't the best because I didn't cope well during the COVID-19 pandemic. Do you think they might make an exception for that?
They definitely will make an exception, remember you have your interview before they look at your report cards, and judging by the way my 2020 report card looked (I failed 1 science tests and 2 maths tests) they value the interview more.
Awards are important, but dont higlight it if you dont have any. I got my Australian Scout Medalion as well as a few science competition awards, and they help to show that you're a well rounded student who exceeds what they need to do. They like well rounded student. If you need any help just ask or pm me whatever
