Schooling for Year 11/12 - Public or Private?

Hi everyone,
I live in Sydney and i've been attending a private school for all of my schooling up until this point. Recently however, i was accepted into a selective public school.
So i'm facing a bit of a dilemma - im not really sure if i should bother changing schools with only two years left to go, or if im making a huge mistake in just not accepting the position i've been offered straight off.

I was accepted into a school i didnt think i would be accepted into, as i applied late and it's a very very good school (well from what i've read anyway...).
So i'm wondering why on earth im hesitating...
And i think it's probably because of a few reasons - i dont really know much about how the school itself works firstly, im worried about being extremely far behind in the work compared to the students attending the school already, and i feel compelled to stay where i am established and comfortable.

So any suggestions of pros/cons in relation to changing schools which could add to my considerations whilst i make this decision are indeed appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

Fear of the unknown besets us all.

come to the edge he said
but we are afraid
come to the edge he said
so they came
he pushed them
and they flew

My daughter went to Sweden for 12 months on a student exchange at the age of 16. If she can take herself halfway around the world and succeed then you can change schools.

Jump you will be a better person for taking the risk.
