Year 11 is good because it is essentially an opportunity to develop an effective study schedule for each of your subjects. This includes identifying and addressing areas of improvement throughout the year. The main difference between year 11 and year 12 is that none of your results in year 11...

Would the following working help?

The problem is that this is technically work that was assigned to you by your teacher and failure to complete it constitutes grounds for an N warning. Of course, your particular situation is slightly more complex than that given the apparent unfair expectation that you should complete assigned...

There is no one standard answer. The maximum number of hours that a student should work in year 11 depends on their own circumstances. Year 11 may offer flexibility with work hours given that none of your year 11 results will contribute towards your HSC results or your ATAR (assuming that you...

English works differently than maths. English Extension 2 students must still take English Advanced and sit its HSC exam, unlike Mathematics Extension 2 students.

Is having more free periods the only reason to drop PDHPE? If so, I would question whether such a decision is justified. You seem to be performing well across your subjects, as seen through your favourable ranks. You could perhaps drop this subject if you believe that you need to allocate...

There are usually two perspectives regarding matters like this. The first one focuses on the ability to study law in the first place and choosing the option that guarantees that ability. In your case, your offer from UTS will allow you to study law. At the same time, studying at UTS does not...

The Talent 100 ATAR calculator does not seem to work as well as it used to a few years ago around when I completed my HSC. This would explain the low percentile figures for Mathematics Extension 1 and Mathematics Extension 2. However, as I was typing this, I realised that this is explained by...

UNSW will also require favourable results during your time at WSU (at least 1 year full-time for them to be considered) as well as favourable LAT performance. You would need to allocate time to prepare for the LAT in addition to that needed for your university studies. It may be challenging to...

When research is concerned, the rank of a university becomes more important. Generally speaking, USyd and UNSW both produce superior research output, both in quality and quantity, compared to other universities, making them the ideal choices if the end goal is to undertake a PhD. As such, the...

Simply do your best at WSU to achieve the best possible results, as that will maximise your chances of receiving an offer from either UTS or USyd. :)

The issue is that the university that a graduate attended is taken into consideration in the legal field compared to other fields. This becomes increasingly relevant in the case of larger/well-established firms, which favour graduates from universities such as USyd and UNSW. A student whose aim...

Your issue is consistent with the category P01A: Disability or long-term medical condition under the Educational Access Scheme (EAS). The number of points that you can receive can vary depending on the specific university. For example, UNSW has a limit of 10 points whereas WSU has a limit of 5...

Taking English Extension 1 in year 12 requires the completion of the English Extension year 11 course. The same applies to Mathematics Extension 1. If you do not take and complete the year 11 course, you will not be eligible to take the year 12 course. This is part of NESA subject rules and does...

A raw HSC exam mark is the actual mark that a student receives in an HSC exam without any adjustments of any kind. NESA does not inform students of their raw HSC exam marks, although students can request them from NESA at a fee. An HSC mark refers to the overall mark that a student achieves in...

Ideally, it would be good to do a combination of all three. Revising content that you have already learned will help you remain familiar with that content. Completing practice material, such as past exams covering that content will also help you confirm whether you are able to effectively apply...

Here is what I think: Overall, the paragraph is well-written (including from a content and case study perspective), with some parts that can be written in a simpler way and others that can be written more concisely. You should also avoid using additional words that increase word count but do...

Essentially, a double major involves studying two fields as part of one degree, which can also be achieved by studying a double degree, although the former constitutes a shorter path time-wise compared to the latter. This is evident given that the Bachelor of Advanced Computing is a 4-year...
