The phone message is just something like: Subject mark band So if you are doing a 1 unit extension subject it will just be something like: Math Ext 1 48 E4 If you're doing maths extension 2 then as Trebla has said it counts for 2 units so it will be out of 100 in that case

Normally you know what prac it is going to be or the pracs from which they are going to choose. To study for a practical exam it is slightly different from a normal exam. You want to know things like: - the method - variables: independent, dependent, controlled - aim - hypothesis - how you...

It's possible but work hard at English. At the moment that could be the reason you don't. If you can push that mark up in the externals by a few it should be possible

Nope you don't need to do 4 unit maths. I did 2 unit math and 3 unit maths and got 99.70. Of course if you are capable then go for 4 unit as it will be good for your ATAR if you are able to do well in it. The statement about focusing on other subjects is an important point to consider as well...

There are estimations in the HSC but these are handled by NESA and not your school, so the need to provide evidence and etc. will be more strict. So not really a good idea in my opinion to take a chance with that because they could deny your special consideration. I would only take that out if...

Internal exams refers to all the assessments you do throughout the year at school. So that's not only the trial exams, it also includes previous tasks

The external HSC that's a different ball-game given the illness misadventure is decided by NESA, however, for internal exams at your school there will likely be something present. When I was in Year 12, the first bunch of exams in the first term I feel sick. I did the exams but took out...

If you are going to do science subjects at uni, chemistry probably has more transferable skills as physics is more useful for the engineering side of things The reason why people say that is they may have different interests or didn't perform as well in the subject. I might be a bit biased...

Bump! As Year 11 comes to an end, many students in Chemistry may have underperformed and are looking to improve their skills prior to Year 12 or they ask the question about what do they need to know from Year 11 that is necessary for Year 12 content. Here is a link to a post I made before...

To put it simply honestly doesn't matter. You can use any of those kinds of paragraphs structures and if you do it well you will do well. I never personally used any strict paragraph structure and got a high band 6 in advanced English, so safe to say the English teachers aren't explicitly...

For q3 you haven't factored in that [H+] doesn't always equal to the [acid]. It is diprotic, therefore must be multiplied by 2. So [H+] is given by 2 x 5x10^-4

The problem with AAS is you need to suspect that is the chemical present, as the technique requires the use of a lamp that contains the element to be analysed. You also need to make up like a few standard solutions for the calibration curve and then run their analysis, so it’s not really a...

If you’re aiming for medicine you should ideally be doing the harder higher scaling subjects as a high ATAR is necessary to get into medicine. I had a similar subject structure to that (everything aside from SOR) and it was manageable. Business studies is a fairly easy course as most stuff is...

Hi I offer tutoring for chemistry you can check out my post here if you’re interested: https://boredofstudies.org/threads/chem-tutor-99-70-multi-award-unsw-chem-student-high-quality-booklets.388028/

Take note however that the papers before 2019 are of the old syllabus. There are common aspects like molar heat of combustion, titration but you won't get practice on things like a large majority of module 7 organic chemistry as there was no aldehydes, ketones their reactions and reaction...

The depth study aspect is not that demanding for the sciences and is usually it is quite straight forward as it is based directly on the syllabus dot points. It usually comes in the form of: - a research task on some syllabus dot points - performing practicals to answer a certain overall...

I didn't do biology personally so can't comment on the content, but in general every subject will have boring and interesting parts to it, regardless of what course it is You should be able to manage it with good study habits. I also did 2 sciences (physics and chemistry) with ext math...

You shouldn't really worry too much about if you just barely got 90% in Year 10 exams, obviously if you got like a 40% in a science exam then yeah that's a bit worrying in terms of being able to handle 2 science courses, but anything more than 80% and you can refine those skills for sure and hit...

What is more important is the ranking. Also, it depends on how difficult the exam was / how harsh the marking was. So a better indication would be to compare against how others in your cohort did. If it's still a fairly good ranking then you will be fine. I had friends in bio who got in the high...

This would depend a lot on how your school does it. Most likely it will just be on paper as you will likely get back your exam paper. My school had some external markers when I did trials and it was on paper. I wouldn't worry too much about the feedback, the people are likely qualified if they...
