No...not trolling. It's just what I've heard, apparently they set the tests harder etc etc so to compensate Ds = HDs. But by all means don't take my word for it I'm just a hsc student reading BoS haha

Doesn't macq count Ds as HDs? So on your resume you would say HD average. Which would defs be better than a credit/distinction from unsw. Up to you.

International studies taken as the major of B. Arts at UTS lets you learn a language at the uni and eventually live in a overseas uni for 1 year. It probably does not add new fields for job prospects, but it would make you more employable due to the overseas experience and fluency in a language.

Its recommended that we spend 35 mins on each essay in the hsc, so maybe....800? Most people will finish the other sections quicker so they have more time for the essays so obv more for them.

Yea that makes a lot of sense

Pretty sure yes. March-April-May.

They usually have something that is topical for the essays, and remember that it was written sometime around April. My guess is something to do with the exchange rate or CAD/Fiscal policy

Out of curiosity, how much does doing an all nighter fuck up your sleeping habits?

I don't know anything about Medstart, but Medentry was very good imo. They went through how to answer questions in the lecture, but the real value was the online resources. Tons of prac papers, guides and drills. But try get a group together to do it as its pricey (~$700-800 for a non group?)...

My trials aren't til next week, but can you guys give me some advice about the creatives for English? Should I prepare/memorise a story and try reproduce that in the exam, or should I instead spend my time doing small plans for many different stories? Cheers, and gl to everyone for english tomorrow
