    How do I do well in a class taught by a crap teacher?

    Find a proper legal studies textbook (PM) and do as many past papers as you can :) I had to learn the 2U prelim maths content by myself (I had a term) and I ended up getting 89% on my yearly (not great but I mean, look at the circumstances). I understand maths and legal are really different but...

    To legal, to IPT or to physics, that is the question

    You should try convince your teachers that since you are doing an accelerated subject, you should be entitled to doing 2 extra units. If that's not possible, I'd say go for physics, seeing you're doing 3U maths.

    Ultimate Guide for Selective School Entry (Yrs 8-12)

    I know you chose the best schools to put into the guide, but I just wanted to say that Gosford High School is a great school to apply for. Not too hard to get in, yet has amazing teachers and it feels like a private school. If you are very academically strong, they'll let you get into the school...

    Tim Winton Short Story *URGENT*

    So I know this is irrelevant to the questions you asked but I have a slight problem reading this. The ideas are good, but I feel like I'm reading a list of what the guy did in his day. Also, I think in part 3 you wrote Jake instead of Jack in one of the parts (not really that important, but...

    Why is the IPT forum dead?

    Yeah I am serious lol. I understand they 'scale' better, but there's still a huge risk. Getting like 60% in Extension 2 Maths might (Idk - probs exaggerating) get you like a 90 atar but you could do the other subjects that are easier, do better in them and get like 98.

    Why is the IPT forum dead?

    There's something I don't get. Why do people kill themselves doing 3 sciences, 4U maths and 3U English, when they can have 1 science, 2U math, 2U English and more 'fun' subjects and have less risk of failing/wanting to kill yourself?

    Year 9 Visual Design

    Visual Design is basically doing Art using softwares on the computer. I THINK (not 100% sure) that it is more 3D art like animation and stuff like that. You also use editing software. If you like technology and visual arts, you'll like it. Also, download the syllabus and read it, it'll give you...
