What’s MacRob or a Selective School Like?
August 4, 2014 By Vi from examsuccess.com.au 2 Comments

Some people perceive MacRob, Melbourne High or any of the selective schools to be really geeky, full of students with Asian background and all they’re interested is in studying.  Most of this is probably true (as I’m of Asian background, geeky and interested in studying) but I’d like to provide some insight to parents who are wanting to send their child or get their child into a selective school and how I found it.

1. Academic Focus

Naturally, you do a test to get it so people who go to the school are academically inclined.  They may not be natural geniuses but they’re interested in school work and interested in doing well.  This means you’re surrounded by people who are going to be competitive in getting the best marks.  It meant that my group of friends in high school were more interested in studying so they could get high scores as opposed to trying to find a boyfriend.  Because you’re friends are interested in school, you stay focused too.

2. Some Sports?

I’m not a big fan of sport.  Have never been good at it and don’t understand the appeal of it.  But it’s not to say that students in selective schools don’t do sport.  The majority don’t but there were a few really dedicated groups.  There was a girl in our year level who went on to sail (it was her own held interest and she pursued it within MacRob).  A few of my friends got involved whenever there was a school competition e.g. lacrosse and soccer.  Predictably, our school always lost but the team spirit was there.  So yes – if sport is your thing, there’s definitely space there – it’s just a minority though.

3. Nearly Zero Bullying

Bullying happens in nearly all schools, but at MacRob it was odd because I don’t remember any bullying.  Everyone just left each other alone.  Obviously there is some gossip when girls are around but I didn’t remember any physical or verbal bullying.  There were no fights on the yard or anything of the sort.  Perhaps, we were too busy competing for scores but bullying seemed stupid to even occur at MacRob.  Actually, from memory there was one instance of bullying that occurred involving a nasty letter online (I was not involved but I had heard about it).  The girl doing the bullying was asked to leave the school (for other reasons) in the end.

4. Mastery of Self

The first thing I noticed about MacRob coming from an all Catholic girls school was the lack of rules and fences.  At the Catholic school I went too, we were pretty much fenced in (for our physical safety or to prevent us from leaving?).  Additionally, when the teacher came into class we didn’t need to stand up.  It was a strange observation because while at MacRob there was no fencing (so you could leave whenever you wanted) or rules like ‘standing up’, the students often behaved very respectfully towards each other and the teachers compared to the previous school I went to.  It was all about self-discipline.
