i have only gotten my results back for one exam and that was society and culture in which I got 65%... i was aiming for a little higher hopefully in the 70s but I have struggled with this subject cause I do it via distance :blink2:

Don't stress too much on prelim marks unless you're aiming for extension 2 subjects. Also, marks themselves don't matter, you should care more about your relative performance compared to the cohort.

tbh I did pretty well in the tests I've received so far (somehow cooked for phys despite literally learning the formula sheet the night before) but just sad I lost math adv rank 1 to fricking silly mistakes :/
Right now I'm so burnt out and lazyyyy somehow gotta reset for Year 12-

in the nicest way possible - some of my friends got early entry for decent courses at places like unsw/uts with grades below average.
yes the stakes for early entry are lower than you might expect apparently. you dont need straight As and could maybe get away with no As if you do harder subjects is what i heard. feel free to correct me if im wrong
