I think Advanced English is generally better. I'm able to help with any queries you might have.

thing is mum told me to do std and kept sorta co-erced me into doing std. I WISH I DID ADVANCED THOOOOOO IT SEEMS LIKE MY VIBEEEEEE

the only downside about doing adv is that if ur at the bottom it can be kinda demotivating and u feel dumb in ur class otherwise adv is better

I spent 40 mins trying to graph 5 trig graphs the long way and I still got it somewhat wrong. I give up and screw my teacher cause table of values would take like 5 mins to do 5 graphs. No matter how hard I try table of values is still faster and idc that it's a dumber way to do it cause whatever gets the job done I'm gonna do it. Like I don't have the time for this and I don't understand why my teacher wants us to do it the long way

wow that's actually really good. But also if adv might be a different story cause the adv cohort is def a whole lot stronger and the whole ranking thing would def change tho. Like I was ranked 24/67 for prelims with a 53/80 so u could kinda gauge ur rank if u were in adv based on that. Also our exam was 3/4 the same as std

mine was pretty similar to the adv paper from my school, differences here and there, but I'm doing good based off methodsI've learned in standard with a teacher who yells half the time and half my class is ragebaiting her. So sometimes I wonder if I could have done advanced and done well if I had learnt techniques advanced has and also with a teacher who is actually focused on helping the kids. Plus, no offence to the standard kids but my grade was BUNS (66.25%) and I still ranked 6th soooooo... maybe, who knows.

lol we got the same mark yeah then def u could have cause the adv teachers are soooo much better. And the average in adv was like 61% so u would have been above average in adv

I’m sure private schools have textbooks in the library. My school provides them online and they have stuff like atar notes, etc in the library

my brother is complaining how the kids in his grade are voting for school leaders based on how good of a roblox player they are lmao. This kids need to learn what true leadership is and how it isn't determined by them playing roblox. It's almost like they've created a roblox empire where if u don't conform u get banished. #1984 irl

Also apparently his whole class was singing the brain rot songs on the way back from an excursion and sang it on loop for an hour. I don't know how the teachers put up with this. Apparently the teachers didn't even tell them to shut up.

I swear these kids better learn later on that the world doesn't revolve around roblox cause I don't want my status in society being determined by roblox when these kids are in power and I'm old lmao

if it’s any consolation I have taught 3 students who did standard English and git straight into medicine a5 Syd uni so don’t be too upset . There isn’t a lot of difference between std and Adv . Adv have a few more areas to cover but a high ranking standard English student should be able to get into just about uni course at the uni of their choice
