    Are extension subjects worth it?

    Extension subjects, you must remember that they are 'extension' subjects and that the people who take these subjects are usually very good at them (except in English oddly enough where this is not always the case), so therefore, when UAC does all their scaling of subjects to get your ATAR, if...

    French Extension what to expect?

    Help with intonation, please!

    question about schools..

    I had a friend who got 99.75 at a 'bad' school. All it means, is that you really have to work hard yourself, to get the results. If you have the top rankings, and you top the exams, you won't be at all affected by scaling. Sure, it helps if you have a good school to pull you up, but if you are...
