    General Thoughts: Chemistry

    You should say the validity of the experiment is moderate: Seeing as though the aim was to determine a quantitative relationship between the alkanol used and the heat of combustion, the student effectively achieved this. However, the accuracy of the data is highly compromised to the release of...

    PDHPE State Rank Mark

    Hey guys, just curious as to what overall mark would be needed to achieve a state rank in PE? If you have any friends or anyone you know has achieved the feat in the past, what mark did they get and what position were they? Also roughly what raw mark (internally and/or externally) would be...

    Final Atar Estimate Please

    Hi guys, I'd greatly appreciate if could leave an atar estimate please. School Rank: 42 Subject/ Trial Mark/ Final Rank: Advanced English: 90/105; 15/140 (weak cohort, expecting between 20-25 B6s IMO) Maths Ext 1: 60/70; 16/108 (said to be a strong cohort, although I believe that cohort is...

    Atar Estimate

    I go to the same school as OP Chem is definitely not a strong cohort, every teacher teaching chemistry in our school this year says we'll get 25 B6s tops. Similarly, English is also a weak cohort, everybody in our grade agrees with that we'll probably get a number in the 20s for B6s in Adv...

    2014 Internal Ranks Thread

    By cohort size, all those kids with 202 people in their English cohort are probably Baulko student LOL. I'd definitely say Tomnomnom696 is headed for 99.80+, will largely depend on final marks in chem and english IMO. Mreditor16 looks set for .95 I reckon, hpf for 99+ for sure seeing as though...

    Trials results?

    Update: Maths Ext 1: 86% (60/70) Maths Ext 2: 93/100 Chemistry 96/100 (fighting for two more marks so I can be first outright for trials and say I beat the guy who's going to state rank) PDHPE: 97/100 (lost all 3 marks in MC, so devo) Adv English: haven't got essays for modules or belonging, nor...

    Trials results?

    Haha I just read through all my notes once and tried to memorise everything I could, was relying on my writing technique to ensure I picked up marks. Thanks, as did you! :) Hopefully 95+ for both of us in HSC. Yeah it was like English, but I didn't feel as though there was anywhere near as much...

    Updated Atar Estimate Please!

    Cheers, hoping to break 99+ comfortably but not sure where in the 99s I would possibly get (provided everything goes well)

    Trials results?

    Trials results?

    I know the feels, we have theories that some teachers draw numbers out of hats for our marks haha. My teacher doesn't really have any choice but to let them for the second option, seeing as though trials are done anyways. I had no idea about the aligning, all I know is they are the two that I...

    Trials results?

    Yeah very true, but I need to do well in it so it doesn't adversely affect my propensity to achieve a strong ATAR. English, derailing ATARs since the dawn of the board of studies. LOL everyone in my class at school does sports med, but there are a couple doing The Health of Young People, others...

    Trials results?

    Thanks man, appreciate it. :) Hopefully I can replicate those results in English when I get it back LOL. My options for PD are Sports Med and Improving Performance, the latter is the one my teacher is yet to mark.

    Trials results?

    Only got a few back so far, but here is what I got (40s ranked selective school): Maths Ext 1: 60/70 (86%, disappointed but it was like an HSC paper and wasn't quite expecting this, so I'm going to work on this a lot before externals) Maths Ext 2: 93/100 (IMO should have got 97, but made a...

    Updated Atar Estimate Please!

    UPDATE: My trial results are as follows: 96/100 in Chemistry, my final rank is 3/104 93/100 in Maths Ext 2, final rank is like somewhere between 7-9/54 60/70 (or 86%) in Maths Ext 1, final rank around 20-25/108 97/100 in PDHPE, final rank either 1 or 2/16 (the other person hasn't told me how she...

    General discussion of PDHPE

    cheers man, thanks for the input. I'll make sure to aim for that elusive 100%. But the only marks I lost in trials were in multiple choice LOL

    General discussion of PDHPE

    Time to revive an old thread :) Was just wondering if there is a possibility that I could state rank. My raw mark at school after trials is just under 97, and was curious as to whether a raw mark of something like 92 (which I definitely think is possibly seeing as though I achieved that school...

    Help! to approach this maths question??

    Re: A rhombus with vertices A (1,6) B (6,6) C (-2, 2) and D (x, y) Find the midpoint of B(6,6) and C(-2,2) (two opposing vertices) This midpoint should also be the midpoint of A(1,6) and D(x,y) and you can find it from there Just looking at it, I think D should be (3,2)
