Probably because Unsw and Uts are widely considered to be better universities.

Where on WebCMS are comp marks again?

Ah you are lucky! My school forced us to do every Adv assessment except the trial. It became the biggest meme in the 4u class to see who can screw up 2u the most. Our 2u exam answers were really something else haha.

Yes term 4 onwards it's game time!

I don’t think it’s worth it just because your teacher already helps you analyse everything you need and if you have a tutor then that’s already 2 people doing the exact same this as that study guide. Although it is the new syllabus and I’m no expert on English so perhaps someone could shed some...

There is something called the Pomodoro method. It's very simple but I've noticed it boosting my productivity. Really the only difference between tutored and non-tutored kids is that tutored kids go ahead by a lot and receive heaps of great resources. You could self teach yourself and go ahead so...

Just curious do you usually do 2 courses a term? I'm thinking of doing 2 now instead of the standard 3.

Do what YOU want to do. Scaling should only ever be the last thing used to determine whether you should do a subject or not. You already have Maths Ext and English Ext, Eco, that alone is more than enough scaling one needs for a really high atar. Having one or two 'lower' scaling ones isn't...

No I mean private school students tend to be a bit full of themselves imo, obviously not all. I've seen heaps of racism and bullying at private schools which was never at all present in the public school I attended later. I found the people in a public school to be more accepting and no one was...

I mean it's called Data science so it should. You'll most likely start at the lowest level of a Data scientist as this is how it usually works with Software Engineering for example. You start off as a junior dev and progress to senior dev and project manager etc.

Yup. I actually did quite bad in maths in year 10 like averaging in the 60s to low 70s. By actually paying attention in the classroom and going after class to my math teacher to consolidate on any questions I didn't get also helped. I did put a lot of time into doing past paper questions. So...

Yeah I went to a private school initially and hated the environment there. It wasn't a good place and quite frankly I think a lot of private schools are similar.

Yeah I've never heard of anything like this school. I did a quick google search just then and apparently it's had allegations next to it's name before. Like for e.g. apparently they're not following the curriculum and altering textbooks or something. Again these are just allegations so who...

What in the world...??

$500 incentive?

Ambitious, and by ambitious I mean like it's still a bit in reach. If your aiming for a course with a cutoff that's 10 atar points higher then that's over ambitious.

No not really. If you have a bit of knowledge on programming it might make things easier for you. And by a bit I mean the basics like If statements and what not. Other than that you should definitely get hold of the Sam D textbook if your school doesn't give it to you. Most schools do though.

Nope. I didn't think there was a need to and there wasn't imo. I did great in Ext 1 in year 11.

Oh yeah definitely. Even though it's a new syllabus if the difficulty is around the same it will still be much harder than Adv.

What a shit school. If I was a student there I would transfer immediately imao. It's a private school so your paying them money so they can choose what you can and can't do.
