tbh uni is really fun and not that stressful, the main problem for most people is because of how short each semester and the lack of accountability it’s really easy to fall behind at which point it can definitely become more stressful and easy to screw up. the exam periods are generally similar...

yes this exam season is cooking me so hard and I’ve barely even been studying enough. not too stressed just exhausted

ill probably send in a message to help with marking but writing is a bit much

my school had had no b6 in 4 of my subjects for like 4 years before my year, just because it hasn’t happened much in the past doesn’t mean you can’t :)

that’s very specific why

if you’re on an iphone just open notes and open a note, click the camera icon and then ‘scan documents, scan the document and then when you’re done save it, then click the down arrow and share

if you’re not getting financial support you’ll end up having to work so much that you won’t make the most of the university opportunities anyway, I would probably just go to a university with more reasonable cost of living. there is definitely a difference but the difference from having to work...

no just share your resources, genuinely who cares that much just help ur friends out it’s not that deep

wdym usyd is way better than yale and princeton

I’ve still enjoyed usyd comp sci a lot so far but there is some pretty poor organisation, like they were still adding test cases to our assignment for like 2 weeks after they gave it to us, and still fixing issues in the description until like 3 days before the due date…

that’s for general rankings not just engineering (which is a strong suit of unsw) but generally I wouldn’t really say that rankings are a good way to make university decisions beyond a rough guide on reputation

unsw probably

they take in aligned marks, which are sort of an intermediary between raw marks and the scaled marks which are added to determine your atar, and are the ones you get from nesa on hsc results day. and yes, a raw mark somewhere in the 60s in maths ext 2 typically aligns to a 90

what marks are you putting in to get this result? this should definitely not be the case, if anything for identical marks the atar with ext 2 should be much much higher because the scaling for ext 2 is much better - not that scaling should be a reason to choose a subject, a higher scaling...

a 60 won’t align to a 90, but yes the aligned mark for an E4 (and hence 90) is usually in the mid-high 60s

I would avoid it for in school assessments, the teachers are the ones marking your papers after all, and they will usually mark ideas similar to theirs higher. you can do whatever for the hsc though as long as it’s well written and fits the rubric for a good mark

the whole hours thing is just indicative of what should happen it doesn’t really matter it’s not meant to be exact

it won’t be exactly 20 percent because between first and last it’s also based on relative mark differences between rankings etc but on a fundamental level yes, if your whole cohort did badly around that mark area then yes you would get a mark around 20%. this is fair because 80-90% is clearly an...
