So, in the Standard English Paper 2, I got a question that asked something like 'to what extent does dialogue allow us to create an understanding of cultural tension' or some sht like that. Anyways, I interpreted 'cultural tension' as the tension or issues between different cultures because of...

who knows with this new syllabus lol

Thanks so much. Just did Paper 1 today, feeling happy with it. I'll have to place a lot of emphasis on Math in the coming week.

Thank you. Any chance I could hit 92? What would I need to improve for the externals (what needs most emphasis in your opinion)?

I agree that English can help develop these 'analysis' skills which might prove useful on occasion. However, the point of getting an ATAR is usually to get into Uni, hence doing HSC English should help develop your English skills for Uni or for life in general (e.g. communication skills, basic...

I would say 85-90. If you improve legal studies it could help you a bit

Wouldn't it be better if English was cut into two categories, the first being communication and life skills, and the other being the study of literature? Analysing a text and identifying the 'deliberate' literary techniques that authors use in their texts is never going to be of any use to most...

Just wondering if I could get some ATAR estimates :) [Subject] [Raw Internal] [Rank] [Band 6's in 2018] [Band 6's in 2017] Ancient History -- 91% -- 2/21 -- 0 -- 0 Business Studies -- 88% -- 1/35 -- 2 -- 0 Croatian Continuers -- 92% -- 3/13 -- 0 -- 4 English Standard -- 83% -- 7/93 -- 0 -- 0...

Just got an acceptance through Early Entry for this course I want to do. Just wondering, how does one know if it's a conditional offer or not. It didn't say anything specifically about being conditional, and it let me accept it without accepting any conditions. Is it just an overall guarantee of...

My school made us learn 3 prescribed texts for Mod C, but my friend from another school only had to learn 2. What is like the official amount that we have to know? Is it 2?

Just a reminder, your marks will reset for Year 12 and you'll start with a clean slate that will go towards generating your ATAR.

I think you can do it if you apply yourself and manage your time. If you already know for sure what Uni degree you want to get into and if it doesn't need Math, then sure, dropping to general wouldn't be that bad of an idea. But like the guy above said, if you go to general you are limiting...

I wouldn't go to general. Just try and improve, you're only just starting Year 12

Standard is aids, if you're good enough to do Advanced, definitely do it.

I probs wouldn't memorise an essay because they could legitimately ask us to focus directly on one character, for example. They can be very specific. I'd rather remember about 3 different themes for each module, 2-3 quotes for each of those themes, and a bunch of techniques for those quotes so...

You should probs put in your raw internal marks (weighted average) for each subject

I think you're going to need to put in your raw internal marks as well

Smash out the HSC exams

Possibly Distanced Education, not sure. Ask your careers advisor about it

Standard is complete aids
