Doubtful. If I recall correctly after my year graduated the school started something called integrated home groups. This means your home group will have equal number of students from each of year 9,10,11,12. So unless there’s some preference system I didn’t know about the chances of that happening are very unlikely.

im from suzanne so i'll fill you in..
putting in the same language and house doesnt mean you'll get in the same core class in yr9. the school will then have multiple classes learning the same language but in different houses and separate you all. By the way if you dont like your class in yr 9 im pretty sure you can change. my cohort had 200 people change classes lol. the integrated homegroup thing is different and you can only have 2-3 kiddos the same age as you in the homegroup due to the integrated vertical homegroups.

I just got a second round offer and accepted it. I would like to know if Suzanne Cory runs the BYOD program or do they provide one.

I am pretty sure someone from my school needed to reject the offer for me to receive a second round. The 5% rule should still apply for second round offers.
