Hey all! With Covid and all the stress that's resulting from it with respect to HSC, I was wondering if anyone would be interested in a document that would contain a lot of tips, my particular study habits during HSC, etc. I haven't put this together yet, but email me if that's something that...

Hey! Just saw this now (email is definitely easier) - modern essay is $25.

Bump! More spots available for marking :)

A lot of people get 70 and have ranked first in their school. I'm not 100% sure how they determine it, but I think they look at your actual solutions and also look at your 4U/2U mark and compare that to other people

Metropolis, Blade Runner, Brave New World, Fahrenheit 451, A Clockwork Orange, Handmaid's Tale, Maze Runner, etc. Most dystopian texts fit well with it

100% it is possible. I ranked in 3U never having had tutoring for maths, and I'm not a genius at it, I just put in consistent smart work. My advice is to just go through as many past papers as possible close to exams, do all the textbook examples and know the theory well! What's good about...

I think all the exams had personalised booklets with your student number on them, otherwise, I think they give you your student number on your desk along with your name. But even if they don't I'm sure you can ask someone to tell you

For some reason, my messaging on the BoredofStudies website isn't working, so just send me an email if you want editing at jaredlevy7777@gmail.com

Yes, 100%. Many many people that I know did not do any 4U subjects and got very good atars! Just do what you are good at

My best advice is to make the creative as simple as possible --> Keep it to one setting and one/two character/s. Put in many similes, metaphors, and motifs. Make it first person & past tense, as this is easier for discovery. Also just describe the smells, sounds, feelings etc. using metaphors...

How scaling works, is that the internal assessments (what your school sets) established peoples' ranks based on their marks and the spacings between people (so if the first person gets 80%, and the second person gets 75% this difference is the only thing that matters). When you guys sit the HSC...

If you don't memorise the essay word for word, then try memorising a lot of quotes and good words to use and then selecting quotes based on the question. How I memorised was to print out my essay and just reading it aloud while walking many many times over, and eventually absorb the essay. Also...

I did an essay, and it was a lot more work than I had expected. That being said, I reckon pick it up, and if you can't think of a very good idea within a few weeks drop it. Writing it took me a lot of time, I can't give you an hours per week estimate because I wrote it in fairly large blocks...

The way I structured mine is: 1) Intro 2) Core Text 1 3) Related Text 1 (Link to Core 1) 4) Core Text 2 5) Related Text 2 (Link to Core 2) 6) Conclusion This structure is really simple and easy to follow for the marker, and allowed me to achieve very high marks for the essay component of 3U...

Go as far back as you can - I went to around mid 80s. But, also do trial papers, because many tend to be more difficult than the actual HSC.

I think you definitely could start off with it and see how you go - you can always drop it if you aren't doing well! As for your last sentence, it is not at all necessary to get 100 in ext1, I know a lot of people who got very high marks in 4u and didn't do as well in 3u. Plus, 4u helps a lot...

You definitely don't need to, scaling is really arbitrary - it's basically just a compensation for the difficulty of a subject. Do the subjects that you think you would be able to spend a lot of time doing, which in many ways correlates to your enjoyment for the subject. The only thing you...

Hi, I completed this module for my HSC last year in a school which ranked 3rd in English Extension 1 in the state. Whilst, I cannot offer one-on-one tutoring in Parramatta, I am selling my essay (25/25 internally and 24.5/25 externally) for Navigating the Global, and I am also offering online...

I'm not a big fan of your approach to this particular Hamlet question. What I did when I practiced this question was dedicate 3 paragraphs to all the different aspects of corruption in the play (i.e. sexual through Getrude and Ophelia, moral re Hamlet, and general corruption with Claudius)...
