hey everyone.

i currently have a question that needs resolving. i currently go to the emanuel school but have won a full scholarship to reddam. can i just like slack off for the rest of the year, especially as school cert. if worth jack-all?

or are my reports and record and shit transferred over to the new school? Cos if so i dont want to slack off 2 much. is there a risk of it being terminated if i like just fuck up the rest of the year?

for those who have won one for year 11 entry can u plz help?

thank you

It's pretty hard to do bad in the SC. As long as you stay awake about 20% of the lessons, and listen... you'll get band 6.

I wouldn't fail too hard at anything if I were you... it might be risky.

Don't work incredibly hard, as in, way too much for year 10...just don't fail anything, which would look bad and they might change/remove your scholarship. But I mean, if you got the scholarship anyway, you must have some kind of ability...

Just cruise through the rest of year 10. Thats what everyone else does. Try not to fail cos there is always the chance they could retract your scholarship

It seems to me that you are moving from one private school to another. At my school we insist on seeing previous reports before finalising enrollment but others mightn't do so but I would doubt it very much.

I personally wouldn't slacken off as you could get into bad habits.

does the finalising enrolment thing occur just before you enter the school, like say 2009 entry, they need to check out ur 2008 yearly report before they finalise acceptance and admission? cos i handed in all the stuff before we even get our half yearl exams this year.

btw cern if u come on agen wat school u go 2

You can't really fail the school certificate. It's designed so even the lowest students can manage some marks.

I wouldn't slack off too much. This year you'll build up the organisational skills for next year. If you try this year it will just be a habit, and the transition to a large workload will be easier if you continue trying. If you start slacking it will be harder to get back into a routine.

Plussss if you are continuing maths and stuff, you should at least keep concentration and make sure you understand the stuff theyre doing in class, because they'll start learning things and building on them in yr 11, and if you havent got the foundation knowledge it will be harder for you to pick up next year.


But saying that I'd probably slack off too hahaha. Do whatever you think XD
