    Scaling and the ATAR

    Doing 12 units, not studying for worst 2 units?

    Does it look bad if you do okay in the other 10 units but your extra 2 units you did horribly in? Like for example you don't make the atar cutoff and they're looking at your other subjects? People can still drop subjects right?

    Speed in maths

    I've noticed I'm quite slow at maths papers/questions. Should I attempt to go faster by rushing algebra? Is it expected that the speed of writing in a maths exam is the same as what you'd expect in an english exam? Or would you just slow it down to make less errors.
