    Whatever you have learnt in year 11 and 12 will be assessed in your exams, so learn it flmao. In an exam prelim should account for no more than 20% of it. " Mathematics course no more than 20 percent, of the assessment is to be based on the Preliminary course."...

    MQ Chatter Thread

    I don't know if I should choose the Applied Mathematics or Pure Mathematics major. Both seem very interesting. There's also no information on the new core courses for the majors in the handbook. Unless I'm not looking hard enough, rip.

    MQ Chatter Thread

    Hey, just got into Macquarie University and am planning on majoring in Mathematics. The 2019 handbook for Mathematics seems to have a pretty good update with the whole Applied and Pure Mathematics courses.

    Low bands in ADV english or High Bands in Std english?

    I wouldn't recommend dropping Advanced, instead, I would insist that you continue advanced; no point in dropping it (like BLIT2014 said; "it doesn't guarantee that you'll get top marks in Standard").

    Choosing HSC Subjects...

    So, I'd like to say something about your advanced mathematics concerns. Anyone can do it, seriously; teachers tend to emphasise the whole "Advanced Mathematics isn't for you" type of thing, but, if you put hard work into the course then you're bound to earn a good mark in the HSC. If this hasn't...

    Can I make can art as my major of work?

    That would be amazing, keep in mind that you would also want to add your own distinct art style within the project. You'd really want to "wow" your art teachers correct? Just go along with your foundation idea (Howl's Moving Castle), but also add a few different things that might boost your...

    Should I keep doing maths (2 unit)?

    Honestly, I recommend finding a tutor if anything. If you have a tutor I would suggest asking lots of questions whilst asking for sheets to do in your spare time. Many mathematics teachers told me to study 3 hours a day. Anything is possible, provided that you work and strive for it. It isn't...

    Death Penalty in Creative Writing

    Honestly, you just need to make clarified links throughout the story. Any creative text can be "creative"; so long as it makes sense.

    Any tips/guides to doing well in short response for paper 1 of the AOS

    When answering a short answer question, I tend to write it out as if it's an argument within one of my essays. This may seem pretty bleak and useless; but it works for me.

    Can i get band 5 in english

    To be honest, you're not doing really bad; English just takes time and practice. You can achieve an outstanding mark in English. Remember, if you want something you can get it; provided that you work for it, anything is possible. :D
