    Selective High School Help!!!!!!!!!

    Hey leelo! I'm from Fort Street's Class of 2014 so I can tell you how many people make it in. To be blunt, it's extremely hard to get into Fort if you didn't get in from the start of Year 7. In Years 8-10, around 2-6 new people came into our school per year. Usually it was around the...

    General Thoughts: Business Studies

    My school does it! ^__^ We begin in Year 10 and finish at the end of Year 11, then sit the exam at the beginning of Year 12 (Term 4). Now they're letting Year 9 start it so they can finish it in Year 10. You should try talking to your school about it :)

    What's it like going to a highly ranked/selective school ?

    I beg to differ, haha. I go to an un-named school in the Top 20 and it's pretty diverse. You do have the (mainly) Asians doing those subjects, but there are plenty of people doing NO sciences or no maths, sticking with humanities/histories/arts etc. (like me* ^__^) And heaps of people don't go...

    Is it too much?

    From what OTHERS have said, this is what I'd heard: - Chemistry is a relatively hard subject (or takes a lot of work, depending on your ability). The syllabus is extremely lengthy and detailed. - Biology is the easier science as the concepts are easier to grasp, therefore scaling is worse. -...

    Which is your favorite subject :D

    Ahhh! Absolute respect for you since you love English, haha. That's great for you since it's the only compulsory subject in the HSC T___T (sob). My favourite subject is Maths and basically every subject Social Sciences related! (except Geography and Economics, yuck)

    Subjects for Year 11 2013?

    The subjects I picked are in my signature below, haha. I'm really happy with my subjects since I'm (aiming) to be a lawyer when I grow up and I'm only doing Ancient History because I like the HSC Course. :D :D ALL my friends think I'm slightly crazy since (literally) everyone is doing at least...

    is a high ATAR still possible?

    Hmmm.. just curious. Are your initials Y.M? Anyway, you're only in Year 10. Remember that once everyone hits Senior school, serious competition begins for rankings, haha. Those "lazy" kids will probably begin to study really, really hard and it'll be difficult to even attain an "average" rank...

    Subject Selection?

    Quite a few of my friends picked the exact same subjects you did (as well as their 1 Unit subject). Your subject combination is fine as long as you're entirely sure you're extremely passionate in Mathematics and Science and are willing to keep up with the workload throughout your Senior years...

    english comprehension

    I'm not an expert or anything and creative writing is a weakness of mine too, but here's what I think you could do to improve your creative writing: - First of all look at your school's assignments/assessments outcomes and criteria and the HSC outcomes. This will be what you're aiming to...

    Why selective school kids need tutors?

    The only thing tutoring taught me during my primary school life was that long blocks of learning were boring, truancy was taken lightly and filling out the beginning of computer-read tests were extremely boring. Basically, a complete waste of money since I always finished my tutoring centre's...
