That's a big difference! :mad3: So what do you think of this? Still unlikely?

k, which one do you recommend then? btw how much too high was it for you?

Thanks for the estimates so far. :) Does this seem way too optimistic?:eek:

Thanks. Also, I wanted to add that I really really think I actually can get about 98 in Italian and French in the final exams, based on marking by experienced HSC markers and other feedback I've been given.

Sooo, I'd love some post-trials ATAR estimates if you don't mind :) My school isn't high ranking: in the last few years it has fluctuated between 160 and 250. Generally people are saying our year should be a good cohort, but who knows. These are my ranks and raw marks on my trials. I don't know...

Thanks, I think my rank is pretty low now after trials and I'm 99% confident it won't count for me but I have certain teachers who don't want me to and my mum doesn't either... :vcross: so I'll probably just keep it, do minimal study, and it won't count anyway.

Who knows, hard to predict since the school rank is really low. Great ranks though, congratulations! :)

Wow, there's loads of fantastic stuff on there! Thank you! :)

So, by now some people have already done their speaking exam - how did it go??!!! I haven't done it yet, I'm leaving soon...

Un grande 'in bocca al lupo' a tutti anche da parte mia. :jump: Non siate nervosi, ma invece siate entusiasti per far vedere che potete parlare l'italiano! È una bella cosa parlare in un'altra lingua e allora provate a godervelo! :tongue: C'è qualcuno che farà l'esame orale fuori da Sydney, come...

Does no one have any marks they could add for languages?

Yes, english paper 1 and french beginners on Mon, followed by English paper 2 on Tues. Bleehhhhh! Off to study...

Has your teacher not given you a list of like 80 different common questions? They'll probably start with something easy like: -Parlami della tua famiglia -Quali sono i tuoi interessi? -Che cosa studi a scuola?/Quali sono le tue materie?/Ti piacciono le tue materie? -Ti piace la scuola? -Che cosa...

Thanks, the school careers advisor estimated 99.6 but I don't really trust him... :S

I do Italian Continuers + ext and French Beginners. Definitely keep it, but work hard at it! Languages can get you great marks and it can make things less stressful at exam time as there's little revision and cramming to do - you just have to work consistently over the course of the year...

Ciao a tutti! I'm a 2014-er, doing continuers + ext. :)

I think I'm going to study Spanish... go to South America... ;) :biggrin: buuuummp.

Hi, I'm starting to realise just how unlikely it is that my SOR1 mark will be included in my ATAR and given that I've been spending quite a lot of time making notes and I'm starting to realise that I have quite a lot of quotes and statistics to memorise, I've been thinking that maybe I should...

Ciao, mi piacerebbe davvero! Ti ho mandato un messaggio pm... :)

Hello! Firstly, I apologise if this is in the wrong forum, I didn't really know where to put it. Basically, what I'm asking is what languages would be the most useful, with a view towards international relations/foreign affairs/NGO work in the future? To give some background, I'm...
