I did bio and I wanted to do chemistry, but it didn't run at my school.

Thanks mate, I tried my best coming from a 500+ ranked school and a family where nobody has gone to university before! I sure hope my poverty-stricken lady-brain can handle being in classes with all you smarties from the cities! :lol: Can't wait to start! :wavey:

Lol, if you think that's a bad rank you should come to my 500+ ranked school where we have a success rate of less than 1%. It can be done though, during my time at high school there were 2 girls who managed to get an ATAR of 90+.

It's personal preference, I liked typing them because it was neater.

Junior boys ripping their shirts off and taunting eachother, junior boys jumping off the buildings, junior boys being stupid in general.

Science Ed at UOW :)

I just told them what I got (56.50). They were both really understanding, my Mum rang me from work and said she doesn't care, she's so proud of me for coming this far and she thinks I've done really well. My Dad thinks it's a bummer my school sucked as a group, but he's pretty chilled out about...

Ancient History - 73 Biology - 69 Community & Family Studies - 78 English (Advanced) - 75 Mathematics General 2 - 57 So, pretty terrible! :lol: The worst part is, I did far better than a lot of people at my school.

56.50 :( Thank god for early entry.

I actually didn't find the exam as bad as I expected. Maths isn't my strong point, but I feel reasonably confident. My only issue was time management, I was a little bit slow and had to rush toward the end to finish.

My second-strongest subject, my worst exam... I don't know what happened, I just feel I went poorly. :/

Not too bad, a couple of questions threw me a little bit but I think I pulled through OK. We will see...

I didn't study for CAFS much at all, it's my strongest subject and I thought the exam was alright. No major problems anywhere.

I'm going to UOW next year, and so far every person I've encountered at Wollongong has been really nice. I think it's a lovely city, I can't wait to live there. I don't understand why so many people on this thread claim Wollongong is a 'shithole', nowhere is perfect. Wollongong sure as a lot...

I thought most of them were alright, except that poem. I found it difficult to get my head around it.

I would have liked to have made my extended response and creative a bit longer... But I did get them both finished in time, so that's a plus I guess.

I applied for Psychology and Science Education, I got offers for both yesterday. :)

Hoping to get into Science Education @ University of Wollongong. :)

Re: So.. fellow 15'ers, what after HSC? Rest before uni starts.

You are required to do speeches in English. I suffer quite bad anxiety and the speeches were a major stress for me too, but your teachers should be willing to organise another time for you to do yours alone or with a smaller group. I have never had to do a speech for Ancient History, but that's...
