    I guess I did alright. As with physics it is probably the easiest science. Some concept might take u time to understand but once you do, it is merely application. so make sure you understand the concept rather than memorising and then apply them to a variety of questions. Past papers, CSSA...

    i only studied 2 weeks of my summer holidays. you have 4 weeks lefts so you're all good. i think it is more how you study and how much work you put in, rather than how long u studied for.

    i got a 99.75 ATAR with no extension subjects and with about 7hrs a week. This was because I played representative sport so that took up most of time. I also had my musicianship exams and speech and drama exams throughout the year so I was always busy. I also spent 2 months in Italy because I...

    Which schools will rank in the top 10 this year???

    Just because they don't make it to first in course, doesn't mean that they will not top. IMO, first in course is more of an individual student achievement rather than a school one. Eventhough the school plays apart it comes down to the student. Ruse might very well yet top, but who knows!

    First in Course List

    Is there a video for it? and again surprised at Ruse not topping - I think the change in paper styles and difficulty really created drama with the rankings as well.

    Private vs. Public Schools!

    been in a private school my entire life Kindergarten to year 12 - I think I turned out pretty well. I obviously didn't study in a public school to comment on the education system, but I believe the main reason people choose private over public is religious affiliations. another reason is the...

    So since it's all over, thoughts on raw marks for band 6?

    looking into the paper as an outsider, I found that this years belonging paper was probably the toughest paper yet. As with paper 2, module A and C were straightforward - nothing too difficult and Module B would have being just another question, if you had read your entire text/ poems/ speeches...
