True. But it doesn't really have to be money wise.

It actually is because the school is/may be aiming to: 1) get a better average mark 2) improving their academic image 3) if all those things above work, then overall improve the image of the executives at the school aka the principal Simply they are just doing bad things to gain personal...

RIP

Me in my first week :( Managed to pinpoint the main areas I need to go - still heaps of exploring to do T___T

Not wise. At least spend a minute on it. You don't know how long it'll take you to complete other sections (such as those wonderful 6 mark questions about the environment) + you're risking the chances of losing a mark.

Not sure how the assessments for the online lecture would work but I'd assume you'd be in the same room as the iLecture kids and do your assessment there? (I'm sure they will explain how it'll work). Also most assessments are in tutorials but there are some that require a large scale of people...

WOW I'M IN Lol jks. I'm actually planning on doing it next semester since I haven't heard much about the other planet units and it seems interesting by the sounds of past students :)

Depends on the subject, but from my experience: - English/Humanities: if there's a multiple choice section - start reading & answering the questions in your head (gives you more time for other sections). If not/struggle with essays - look at your essay questions, work out which one to answer...

I've seen people jump from getting 30% to 70-80% throughout the whole HSC year. If really want to do well in the subject and intend on pursing any education that requires this level of maths then keep it, otherwise drop it (however there are various bridging courses available). At the end of...

I'm beat. Three days of walking around trying to get as much free stuff as possible as well as familiarising myself the campus and my legs are so dead. I became such a potato over the holidays :( O-Week has been really fun anyways, but now I have a bunch of homework to do (or independent...

Nice job!

1+ I made about most of mine up anyways and managed to get a decent mark. Nice results btw :)

I got bored with the current anime I've been watching so I've decided to go exploring A Kite - A 1998 movie about an assassin, orphan and high school girl who is controlled by cops to assassinate criminals and give the cops their sexual desires (7/10) Koi Kaze - a 13 episode TV series...

Yes. This time last year 3/4 of my class were doing bad (getting band 3 and less). We all managed to pick up our slack and study hard once our trials were over. Everyone in my class got above band 5 - half of us got band 6. So never give up - focus on yourself and also help your class out...

Firstly you should identify when you have free time - so create a 7 day timetable template (or steal one lmao) and then colour in the time slots you are NOT free (i.e. school, work, tutor, extracurricular - this also includes travel times, eating, sleeping, etc. It's best to colour code this so...
