Nah, it's was a simple accident and most likely, you wouldn't have noticed (I doubt I would have tbh). Just don't worry too much about it, it's over now anyways lol, not much you can do about it.

Oh that's a good suggestion! Thank you :)

Marks no but the content and skills you learn is a yes! By the end of year 11 you are supposed to have pretty much perfected your answering techniques, essay writing skills etc.

HHAHAHAH whaat?? Girraween is a really nice school lmao

Hello friends! I was wondering what other people did for their residential project (preferably in Sydney), and what they did for their volunteering activities and if you have ideas that would be great! Thank you :)

I'm in Year 11 too lol doing 3U Eng, 2 Math, 3 sciences and Mod History lol, guess we have pretty similar subjects. If I don't have work that day I'm pushing 3-5 hours hopefully (this is mainly revision, rather than learning new concepts/doing homework, especially for physics which I'm...

Yes! Even though they are low scaling, if you do well in all of them you should be able to get a 90+ ATAR, there's nothing stopping you!

Should be fine unless it's in your exam block period

How important is the scaling of the subjects you pick? I'm currently in year 11 but this is what I want to do for HSC: Adv Eng Ext 1 Eng Ext 2 Eng Chem Bio Mod His These are generally pretty high scaling I think, but how important would is it actually? Would it be better to pick a...

I wrote a guide on a Baulko application, which would be pretty similar since they both judge purely on reports and extracurriculars. I cbbs typing it out again lmao sorry, but best of luck for your application!

Did anyone go to Delta and find it good? I went to the 2 week trial and I thought it was pretty meh. I'm pretty decent at English and I'm doing extension 1 and looking to do extension 2. The consultation was good but the lessons were meh. I'm looking just to consolidate my knowledge and polish...

Nope! You definitely aren't disadvantaged. It really depends on what you are good at- if I took 4U math (which my selective school would be very good at) I would definitely flop even though everyone else is great. Just do what you're good at, which is content/humanities, and you enjoy it then...

Hi, I'm interested too! :)

The thing with music is you should have a good theory base, or knowledge of music theory. It doesn't have to be extensive but you should at least be able to sightread fairly well, be able to clap a rhythmn, hum a melody and have good knowledge about music techniques. If you can do those, or you...

Hey guys, any tips for studying? I'll be in Year 11 this year (2018 already wow) and I'm moving to Baulko so that's a bit scary lol. Chem Bio Physics English Adv English Extension Math Adv Modern History This is a really weird combination of subjects, I know lol. I would say I'm pretty good at...

Since someone messaged me asking about applying to Baulko I'll just post the same stuff I told them! So I applied 2017, and I'm moving to Baulko this year for Year 11 (which is a bit late tbh). Honestly though, if you could move a earlier (year 9 or 10) do it and don't wait until your in year 11...

Girra is a great school, I really liked it. However, it is pretty hard to make it in (report + test). Parramatta is also a really friendly school and I know a ton of great people there. Not sure how hard it is to get in, but I've heard a lot of good things from it. Mostly though, if you have a...

Ah thank you so much! That is really reassuring since I've kinda been stressing about it a lot recently :/ I'll try to stay above average but no guarantees for math lmao. Thanks tho!

I'm moving to Baulko next year for Year 11 and I'll be doing HSC in 2019. I'm kinda regretting moving now, even though Baulko seems like a great school I feel like my ranks will drop very significantly. At my rank 20ish current school I'm ranked top 15 for all my subjects (except maths lmao) so...

I'm going into year 11 too, but I pretty much use my laptop for everything (except maths) because I'm a fast typer and it's much more organized (since I have messy handwriting lol). I'm just going to use my laptop for writing notes and stuff but I'll keep handouts and sheets in binders. That's...
