    High ATAR with these subjects? Help!

    I would recommend that you stick with 3u and Advanced.

    Journals

    you should be mainly recording progress in your journal, such as literature you have read to inform your final product (I am assuming for critical responses there are many other texts you will be referring to)

    Major Work Help?

    Sounds good. Make sure you draw to an informed conclusion at the end though.

    Major Work Help?

    Perhaps assess whether historians perceive the impact of the Black Panther Party on the Civil Rights Movement during the '70s and '80s as positive or negative. :)

    What career to pursue?

    Not really. And you probably would not know whether or not you are "good at" criminology, psychology, journalism and history until you actually do the courses in university. Particularly for psychology, many individuals have misconceived perceptions about what it will be like. You might have to...

    How do I make a really good extension history major (tips)

    (1) Research. It is the backbone of your major work. Select relevant sources that would be effective to include in your essay. (2) Always make sure what you are discussing is about how the historians perceive your chosen event/personality. (3) Be critical about the historians you have chosen...

(3) The first time you mention any relevant term that may be unfamiliar to the reader, such as an event...

    Is anybody sick of their work

    personally from the parts I have seen here and there from your MW, I am confident your MW is going to be absolutely brilliant once it is completed :) I hope it does satisfy you once it is finished and I can understand this prospect of completion being encouraging for you

    Failed half yearly exams worth 50%, is my atar doomed????

    I congratulate you on such a good mindset! :) I know during my own senior year I became a little disillusioned and doubted whether or not hard work would be rewarded, but in the end all you can do try and see. It is better than the alternative after all, which is just giving up. I believe you...

    Failed half yearly exams worth 50%, is my atar doomed????

    Well, apart from Business Studies you did not do too bad and there is still a fair amount to go (should be the third assessment session, trials and then HSC examinations). I believe it is definitely still possible for you to achieve 75 ATAR. Just try not to linger on these marks too much and...

    Should i pursue law?

    I don't understand why you're considering law then unless you happen to have the same genuine interest in law, which generally speaking will be quite unlikely. Is there any particular reason why you have been considering law, other than as a back-up for medicine? I would recommend that if...

    generic belonging questions

    I just attempted to cover all bases by writing notes about belonging in general and seeing if they could be applied by answering past HSC questions.

    Anyone doing Psychology (Honours) or Law + Psychology (Honours) ?

    I do Bachelor of Psychology (Honours) at MQ. :) I am not too sure about the first two questions, it is something you should contact UAC and MQ about but I have heard from others that your ATAR is taken into account. I am sure there should be Semester 2 intake for these courses, since you should...
