But I mean Ruse is also very competitive like everybody works really hard
would you say your entire cohort works very hard or is it like a select number of people? Because usually you would have to be doing very well in your current school to get a 99+ at ruse
maybe around 40 people work hard with 200 people in our grade in total
people say that you only need to be above the median (so top 50%) in ruse to get 99+

oh wouldn’t that be good then? Because like in ruse everybody works hard and it would be harder to get over the median.
since you said you’re school is private and high performing it may be better for u to stay there if you’re doing okay or good there
I just wanna say I know a lot of kids in ruse and top performing selective schools that get scholarships to go to private schools so that’s something to think about as well :) but congrats on getting offered
