    thoughts on repeating year 12??/know of anyone with a positive experience?

    heyo there!!!!!!!! I most definitely did end up repeating year 12 and I'm kind of upset I didn't update this post much sooner. It has been one of the best decisions I've made and I'm confident I'll do much better. I'll be sure to update properly soon as this is early offer application and...

    can a school stop you from repeating year 12 if your marks are relatively good/you get an offer into uni?

    I need an atar of 80 and I would try to be happy with anything above that, but for myself (and to make repeating worth it) it would be amazing to get 95+ particularly because there is a scholarship usyd gives out if you do get that which would help make paying for on-campus accommodation much...

    you're right, it definitely has haha. thanks! I'll try my best but at this point I know that I can't get the mark I really hope for. Even if I get a few other offers I'm worried that the school would turn me down because I did get into Uni, but not for the course I want and also not with the...

    I know they can strongly advise against it but would they actually be able to stop you and say no, go find other pathways?

    heyo!! I'm not sure if anyone would know,, but do you know if a school can turn you away from repeating there if they believe it's unnecessary as you got relatively good marks and/or offers?

    that's awesome!! As soon as I read that I literally went straight to UAC to add that to my preferences but I can't change them until 22nd October, on that day I will add it. Also yeah I saw about Celtic Studies :/ It's literally my dream to study something like that, I'm kinda obsessed with that...

    i take extension 1 maths and was hoping to drop it but at this point in the year it would be a little difficult (my fault oop) i saw that the prerequisite at usyd was band 4 in 2unit but I'm honestly not sure if I can meet it. My internal mark is 76 (I flunked 2 assessments), but I don't know if...

    thanks for the reply! that's very true but my main motivation here would be to ensure that I repeat year 12, as if I came back next year I'm sure they would tell me to find pathways. and I did get an offer into western so that would be against me, they would just tell me to go and transfer and I...

    hey!! thanks for all the awesome support and replies and received. to give an update the meeting wasn't a disaster but it didn't go well either. I came out with as many questions as I went in with, and I think I may need to keep searching for assurance somehow, but I don't want to give up...
