Agreed. My maths went from 86 - 93... A band 5 Wasn't great for my self esteem especially since I'm employed as a maths tutor. Not to mention everyone judged me for my previous result, and I Can't mention my new one because nobody cares about atars anymore.
Fuck BoS in the ass with a brick.
I came dead last in everything in year 7-11 (actually not true, I topped design and technology in year 7 and food tech in year 10) but ended up doing decent enough in year 12.
Either spend your time trying to pick up the opposite gender, or if that's not your style play computer games or...
I was expecting 93+ for HSC mathematics, and ended up with 86 (externally, my internal weirdly enough was 93).
I was confused and dissapointed, so I ordered the results check and the raw mark check. The results check said everything was fine but the raw marks had interesting news.
For over 20...

I worked really hard, 4 hours average on school days, and then about 10-12 hours on weekends and after school ended.
Still didnt do that great, but it might be because I did 0 hours in the first three holidays, I was normally too burnt out.
working hard doesnt get you great results its better...
perfectly justified, my internal mathamatics mark was 97, my external was 85. I double checked my working and went over Terry Lee answers and feel like I should have got at the very least 93. Knocks down my ATAR by about .4 so I can see why you would think this. Apply for the recheck, best of...
Got 97 externally in Eng Adv and Eco, was expecting mid band 5
Got 91 Externally in Mod, was expecting state rank
Got 38 Externally in Eng Ext, was expecting 48+
Weird how that happens, but more than weird it's just depressing. Subjects your pour your heart and soul into end up not counting...

I came 3rd/90 at NSB my assessment mark was SOOOOO high, I studied non-stop for it but if you saw my external mark you would think I wrote the test in the wrong language.
My goal throughout the whole year was 98+ and I told my self that no matter what I got if it was above 98 I'd be proud but for the amount of work I put in I really really hoped for (and expected) at least 99. Was relatively disappointed with 98.35 even though I reached my goal, but what pissed...
