Has anyone heard of Dr. He?

[the.watchman]

Definitely +1
In my first term there, I averaged 30%
It's better now, I guess he's helped me improve heaps

lol, His son goes to the same school as me and his son is an absolute freak. Like think about it this way. He describes his daughter as "not gifted in maths" she got a 46 in methods. His son is 'good' at maths. My methods teacher had him and said he got the most eloquent sloutions he had ever seen.

Oh and you'll notice his son is the top scorer in the hw every single week. He's done the methods course ....5 times now i think?

I know, he sits next to me
Always pips me in the homework

Personally I like his homework questions and little tips and tricky points here and there that aren't covered anywhere else. I find that 60-80% of the time though, he's just reiterating the basic theory.

Ahh.. checking in on my post from a year ago Carry on!

Out of curiosity, though, what school does his son go to?

Erm, Patrick He's on a scholarship to Scotch
So the fees aren't too much of a concern

Academic scholarship? Any idea what the test is like for private school academic scholarships (Scotch, Haileybury, MGS etc.) as compared to selective schools?

[GerrySly]

Lol his daughter graduated from my school (MGGS) last year. The tests for private schools are fine, can't give a comparison because I have never tested for a selective school before.

Long, long time ago >.<. I remember that they both involve Reading Comprehension, 15-20 minutes creative writing, and Maths. But the MHS one was way longer and involved more stuff.

Private school fees aren't that bad, maybe around $21,000 a year on average? But yeah, his scholarship will make it a hellava lot cheaper

lol that's some people's entire years salaries, it's a shit ton of money (I reckon you'd need to be making like $150k+/year to pay FULL fee entry)

Yeah, it's definitely very expensive
But Dr He gets sooooo much income anyway, he could probably afford full fees IMO

[superflya]

21 K a year not expensive, WTF.

Are you comparing Scotch and Eton?
