    Is a B6 still achievable in this case?

    Well, I got 68% for my trials for Business Studies. I got that because I did not prepare enough. I'm ranked second internally at a poorly ranked school (460-500), and there have been times I've performed really well in Business. Can I still get a B6?

    Filed complaint against teachers.

    I filed a complaint against a few teachers because of their methods (read and highlight). However, even though I asked to remain anonymous I'm worried that they'll find out and hence mark me harshly. The thing is I want to come first in these subjects and if they find out I complained they will...

    Filed a complaint against a few teachers today

    I filed a complaint because I'm sick of their teaching methods (read and highlight). However, I asked to remain anonymous and I'm still worried if they find out because I really want to come first in those subjects but if they find out I filed a complaint it seems like they'll be really mean and...

    Is there still time?

    I just got my rankings for some of my subjects. Most were great but there was one that really bothered me. To start off with my school is ranked terribly 400-500. In Ancient History I'm sitting on 7/14 and have already completed 50% of my assessments. I have another which is worth 25% and of...

    Thinking about taking 10 units as oppose to 12

    Well, I do many subjects that have a lot of content (Modern, Ancient, Business, probably even SOR II, and English Advanced). I'm probably performing the worst in Modern. However, my teacher does have hope in me and I know I really can improve. It was just because I didn't finish my half-yearly...

    Should I do this?

    Ironically, he is the head of the humanities department - so he's in charge of the histories

    Should I do this?

    A while ago, I asked about changing electives for Modern History (Conflict in Indochina to Conflict in Europe). Now, my Modern History teacher is just lazy - he reads from the textbook and we just highlight as we go on. Anyone can do this. I have a tutor for Modern History, who is way better...

    Should I make the switch?
