This probably isn't as bad because I'm for a public school and scholarships are worth about $500 p.a. (levies, fees, books, uniform) but the only person who got the full one at my school ended up coming third. First and second came to the 2 who got half-scholarships :D.
public schools have scholarships.... =\
i want one!!!

Some do, not many. My school was in a pretty good position financially compared to most other public schools (I know because I went to a couple of council meetings). Maybe you should ask your principal about it if you're keen.

Unless you actually want to become a musician when you grow up, music scholarships are horrible (as far as I can tell), since after you get it you are basically obligated to join every single musical group you can fit into, which leaves little time to do other things... like vce

you don't actually have to pay the levies.

The books and the uniform are probably already $500...

Mind you, that was a LONG time ago for me (I had a scholarship during my time at Dandenong High's SEAL [then ALP] program in Years 7-8)

totally agree ... I had the music dept on my back to co-direct the music of the middle school musical, play in concerts, enter comps with random music groups, accompany ppl, etc etc blah blah ..... in year 12. god it was frustratingly annoying. and i couldnt turn them down because then they'd give me the "you're a music scholar its your responsibility" talk. =.='
