    NEED HONEST OPINION/INPUT

    So, in the Standard English Paper 2, I got a question that asked something like 'to what extent does dialogue allow us to create an understanding of cultural tension' or some sht like that. Anyways, I interpreted 'cultural tension' as the tension or issues between different cultures because of...

    ATAR Estimate PLEASE

    Thanks so much. Just did Paper 1 today, feeling happy with it. I'll have to place a lot of emphasis on Math in the coming week.

    ATAR Estimate PLEASE

    Thank you. Any chance I could hit 92? What would I need to improve for the externals (what needs most emphasis in your opinion)?

    English

    I agree that English can help develop these 'analysis' skills which might prove useful on occasion. However, the point of getting an ATAR is usually to get into Uni, hence doing HSC English should help develop your English skills for Uni or for life in general (e.g. communication skills, basic...

    ATAR Estimate??

    I would say 85-90. If you improve legal studies it could help you a bit

    HSC Standard/Advanced Paper 1 Exam Thoughts

    Wouldn't it be better if English was cut into two categories, the first being communication and life skills, and the other being the study of literature? Analysing a text and identifying the 'deliberate' literary techniques that authors use in their texts is never going to be of any use to most...

    UOW Early Entry?

    Just got an acceptance through Early Entry for this course I want to do. Just wondering, how does one know if it's a conditional offer or not. It didn't say anything specifically about being conditional, and it let me accept it without accepting any conditions. Is it just an overall guarantee of...

    Question about Mod C

    My school made us learn 3 prescribed texts for Mod C, but my friend from another school only had to learn 2. What is like the official amount that we have to know? Is it 2?

    0% in english advanced !?!?!?!??!

    Just a reminder, your marks will reset for Year 12 and you'll start with a clean slate that will go towards generating your ATAR.

    Do you think it's possible to get a 95 ATAR?

    I think you can do it if you apply yourself and manage your time. If you already know for sure what Uni degree you want to get into and if it doesn't need Math, then sure, dropping to general wouldn't be that bad of an idea. But like the guy above said, if you go to general you are limiting...

    Do you think it's possible to get a 95 ATAR?

    I wouldn't go to general. Just try and improve, you're only just starting Year 12

    Is Standard English really an Atar killer and should i do advance instead?

    Standard is aids, if you're good enough to do Advanced, definitely do it.

    So anyone else just gonna memorise their essays for English?

    I probs wouldn't memorise an essay because they could legitimately ask us to focus directly on one character, for example. They can be very specific. I'd rather remember about 3 different themes for each module, 2-3 quotes for each of those themes, and a bunch of techniques for those quotes so...

    Atar Estimate Please!

    You should probs put in your raw internal marks (weighted average) for each subject

    Is an ATAR of 80+ (or at the very least 75+) still possible?

    I think you're going to need to put in your raw internal marks as well

    Where else can I study preliminary/HSC courses outside of school? I want to do Engineering Studies.

    Possibly Distanced Education, not sure. Ask your careers advisor about it
