fair lol that was the first thing that came up to mind when I wrote that but it isn't really true In hindsight, better reasons are: convenience, unis upload everything online and courses change twice a year (or thrice for unsw) so you wouldn't really want a book for each one

Yea, can't say much about the license bit, that's tuff for you you could consider working casually during uni or even seasonally during your breaks. If you're eligible for CSP, it's pretty easy to pay off uni fees and even save a bit

Wdym by that? Just apply for hecs Also, personally, my rationale for not taking a gap year is that it'll be really hard to get back into the study routine again after relaxing for a year; the post-hsc holidays is enough of a break imo and if you go to a uni that operates on semesters, you get...

You wouldn't want to carry around paper books especially when your uni is a 1-2 hr one-way commute lol

Hsc != 50% of your atar If that was the case, every school out inflate the hell out of internal marks

Is your cohort strong and are you confident in your abilities to compensate for your rank in the hsc? You'll get your answer if you think about the above

This just means you have no safety net of a well performing cohort for you to fall back onto. So preferably be rank 1 in all your subjects or at least top 3 before hsc and spam past papers and you'll get the highest atar available to you (which is >90)

Don't give yourself time to become demotivated

The first part of my message? Ok, say I go to a school that ranks 500+, gets no B6s and gives out easy assignments and I score 100s on all my assignments. If I omit that my school is lenient and performs badly then someone can say I'm on track for 99.95 atar when in reality, I'd get cooked by...

No one can predict your atar with internal marks only, you need to give at least a range of your school ranking to get at most, a vague estimate You can definitely get in engineering with std maths but you gotta study/be familiar with adv+ math topics to not get cooked by 1st yr maths (for unsw...

nah, just get high atar, high ucat and ace the interview

Doesn't hurt to try But also if you're not: Going into bio-related fields after school Applying for early entry Then I don't see a reason to try besides for enjoyment and/or ego lol

This is a pretty standard binomial question, I reckon band 4-5?

How?

If it was B, then dy/dx wouldn't be 0 at x = -1

HSC is not about how smart you are, it's more about how you play the game You can be dumb as hell and still get all rounder

Ext 2 is not hard conceptually if that's what you're asking Just grind past papers and you'll be fine

You can write in dotpoints which will help both you in terms of seeing if you've given enough detail and for the marker since it's easier for them to tick off the criteria

Better wording (deliver your points differently if you structure them redundantly), trim down your quotes and make your points more specific Practice makes perfect and keep consciously trying to find ways to trim down your words, not only when you're prompted to 200 words shouldn't be that bad...

I can't speak for unimelb but if you want to go to a uni in nsw, go unsw for engineering I've heard so many bad things about the engineering/compsci faculty in usyd (e.g. quality of teaching and facilities, poor syllabus organisation and course planning in general, etc)💀💀
