not being allowed to do 4u (2 Viewers)

Ok, my contribution. Nobody can stop you from doing a subject, they can jsut recommend that you don't do a subject that you may fail.

Not strictly true.

If the school has a stated maximum class size and that class is full they can refuse to take a new student and the BOS will support the school.

That's one disadvantage some capable 4U Ruse students may face.

yup. This is due to the fact that there may not be enough teachers to teach the course and/or can't be fitted into the timetable. Because of this, many many schools will restrict the Extension subjects to only the most capable students.

I'm so glad I signed up for 4 unit two days after I received an invite to do the course. a girl signed up 5 days after that and the class was full so she couldn't do it.

Well I believe if you can convince the principle and teachers, you may sign up to an already full class, but not actually attend, rather, take up self-studying.

you believe? wheres your sources?

@OP: no, the school cannot stop you from studying 4unit. You can always study it if u want, it just wont count for your HSC.

Hurlstone's very strong with mathematics, a fair few go to my tutor. I would dedicate a lot of time in doing past prelim papers. Also, just curious (because I know a fair few people who go there) - does the top 30 include the accelerated class or is the 30 people based on the non-accelerated maths class?

The HAHS cohort would be nothing without Truong.

Haha I know

I go to truong myself. So many hurlstoners.

Not really. I reckon Helene and Kirby from the current Yr 12 would rip up HSC even without Truong.

Sorry, I'll reword that:

The HAHS cohort AS A WHOLE would be nothing without Truong.

Admittedly, the '09ers do seem better than the '10ers at maths.
