I thought the grades matter more, I think they do and it depends on how competitive the course is but I can't be too sure. We literally all had such similar extracurriculars. In my school, lots of ppl who got ALL Bs and As didnt get accepted for law - but mind you, the Bs were like in English, some in legal etc so idk in my school an A is only 90+. However some people that failed chemistry and maths got into engineering... and they all had very similar extracurriculars... All of our extracurriculars included things such as school leadership team, faith related leadership positions, volunteering outside of school, sports stuff etc.

yeah I just to do more volunteering stuff cause I don't have any of that stuff

But how tho for maq early leaders and achievers? Cause don’t they have to call referees for ur 2 activities. I want to do commerce

do y have any volunteering or leadership positions at school? I literally had one for wellbeing leader and we did absolutely nothing... Theres also peer support?? Idk if ur religious but for me I had volunteering as a youth teacher for children's bible studies at my local church.

I mean there's small volunteering stuff like selling Christmas cards which I did last week. But leadership positions are already full and I didn't get any. But there are some stuff I can do at my church like this charity thingy they have and also they have Sunday school but these kids are chaotic and I don't want to deal with my brother lol

yes definitely do the charity thing and just get a leadership/volunteering appropriate title for the christmas cards one. Im pretty sure you only need like 2-3 extracurriculars. I'm sure some other roles in ur school could come up early next year, if they do make sure to join them. Make sure you have good teachers if its a school role that are gonna actually check their emails/phone calls as ur references...
And dont even worry if you dont get in. There is ALWAYS the Schools Recommendation Scheme. Just ask whoever in ur school is responsible for it to actually do it for u

honestly I didn't even do that much for the chrstimas card one cause not many people came so they dismissed me cause they didn't need me. But for SRS, I don't know if my grades are good enough and the leaders and achievers one is the easiest to get into I think as long as I have extra curricular

nope I didnt get in leaders & achievers even tho my grades were all As and Bs but I got in through SRS! Also, correct me if Im wrong, but I think leaders & achievers scheme gives a scholarship/money to the student?

oh wow really. I thought lots of people get into leaders and achievers. I'm applying for commerce tho. Maybe it's cause most competitive spots were filled in leaders and achievers so then SRS was less competitive or vice versa

 

[Tony Stark]

Predictions for all subjects (band 6 cutoffs):
81 for physics
87 for maths standard
82 for Biology
91 for English standard
83 for legal studies.

Fingers crossed, though in the words of M.r gonna cost ya, you won't need luck if you studied.

Also stop ignoring me bruh I know where you live.

 

[Tatya]

So y’all don’t know the prediction for b6 cutoff for Chem but I reckon physics will be lower like 79

I think someone said 85 ?? idk

 

[hellokitty48920]

I reckon physics will be like 78 or something it was harder than last years and previous years but it’s not gonna have the crazy alginement as 2019
Chem seems like an 85

here

 

[hellokitty48920]

what do u guys reckon the pdhpe cutoff is

 

[Tatya]

here

I’m the one who predicted that I’m just wondering if anyone else think it’s higher or lower

OH HELP SORRY I DIDNT REALISE

 

[jane1820]

Actually, I think legal studies would be 82 or even 80. There was more application of knowledge than last year's.

if legal scales up then why do i always here that business, pe and legal are the worst scaling subjects
do they mean in terms of atar contribution?
