Re: whoo stuffed up half yearlies??

Had english this morning and Art in the afternoon

Fcuked up the AOS for english, why do the unseen texts have to be so confusing?

But for the first time i cracked the 2nd booklet for an essay in section 2 so im pretty happy with that :D

And art....who knows...our teacher couldnt even remember to give us writing paper lol

just got dominated

hey

just finished my half yearlies

im devoed, i didnt work as hard as i couldve, and thats been reflected from the results ive gotten back

each exam was weighted 25%, except english which was 10%
all my results are between 60 and 75%, and that puts me in around the average mark for each subject

wat im paticulalrly disappointed with is general maths, i got 60% in, i think im coming like 40th out of 50, i know thats gonna kill my uai


can i still achieve a UAI in the early 90s if i improve? Or should i aim lower?

Re: just got dominated

You really have to improve your GM rank, but 90's is still no unrealistic, so long as you rank well internally and do extremly well externally.

I pretty sure im going to get dominated in some exams.

Re: just got dominated

If you put in a lot of effort you will be able to bring up your rank. Dont lower your goal just because you did bad now.

The guy who duxed my school last year came 50th out of 52 for his first english assesment. He then went on to top the school in english and get a UAI of 99.80 so dont let bad results get you down. If nothing else, use it as motivation to put in extra effort for the rest of the year.

i feel like i need to write everything down, like john barton in looking for alibrandi.

wanted: one soul keeper. applicants must be able to keep secrets, and promise to read to me only after my hsc. LOL.
