"Dont' just go on the reputation"
A review of Hills Road Sixth Form College by student #9847018937 - Saturday 17th of April 2004
Don't assume that just because you are ambitious you should got to HRSFC. I took it for granted that i would go to Hills, yet am now regretting this as it has many points to consider apart from its reputation. Hills is not a place to go if you want to have fun at sixth from as well as learning. In fact its not really a place to go if you want to be taught, yes all the teachers are incrediably well quailified but this does not mean that they actually teach you all of the things you need to know, a noticeable majority of mine seem to think you either just know it, or can go and teach yourself out of textbooks, which works only to a point. I'm nearing the end of my AS courses and still find that in many of my subjects we have a lot of work still to be covered. On top of that hills is effectively a public school, a lot of the people there are not my kind of people, although they are all or at least mostly all lovely people, but very different from the people at my previous state secondary school, as the majority of them come from the many public schools around Cambridge. Hills Road is not the place to go for a confidence boost.
