Yeah, I'm doing pretty well although you probably knew that considering you always answer my questions xD [IMG]. I'm guessing from the other visitor messages that you're studying engineering? What's that like? I was thinking along a similar course myself but then I really really dislike maths...

My understanding is that these changes as explained by the Board of Studies (Board of Studies News), "will not affect 2009 Year 11 and Year 12 students." These changes, most likely, refer to students who are commencing their HSC (i.e. year 11) this year and not the year 12 students of 2010. So I...

A school in the early 300s predictably. But it's pretty good actually; I get personal tutoring for most of my subjects and our 2009 DUX got like 97.55 which is pretty decent I reckon. I'm guessing you go to a top 50 school?

75+, perhaps pushing past 80 depending on the size of your cohort. But anything near 90 (I know you only asked for 75), you will need to be top 10 pretty much across the board.

What is your definition of a high ATAR? Since you haven't specified, I'll say 97+ for the purpose of this post. Based on your subjects, these are the approximate marks you will need: Standard English - 93 Mathematics - 93 Society and Culture - 92 Business Services - 92 Visual Arts - 92 So...

Thank you so much - FINALLY someone who can say what we've all been thinking. Personally, I reckon ATAR estimates are more or less used as tools for self-motivation (i.e. someone doing poorly) or self-validation (someone doing well).

80+ because of the relatively poor Ad. English ranking. But again, everything depends on your future results as well as that of your cohort.

Ha, you reckon that's a small grade? My year has about 30 students and my largest class is about 10 students. As for the OP, 98 is at this point a bit of stretch. In order to attain the top ATAR at your school (which would probably be around 98-99 based on your moderately high school ranking)...

95 is probably reachable but it depends on you lifting your Ad. English ranking considerably (i.e. top 10 recommended).

95+

Only about 100 pages or so: The Outsider by Albert Camus.

90+ but if you don't improve in Ad. English, it will end up hurting you later on as two units of English are counted in your HSC regardless of your results in other subjects.

Yeah, I'm a school prefect which I don't mind too much but the meetings are so god damn boring. Anyway, how are you going with your HSC? [IMG]

Thanks for the rep [IMG]. So what's it like being the "cult leader of the SRC?"

Hey there. I'm not judging you/being rude or anything, but did you just randomly add friends so you wouldn't appear lonely? [IMG]

90+ if you can lift a little in the sciences especially. And yes, you need to perform better percentage wise in Standard English.

You're doing well but you're rank in Advanced English is not quite good enough. Unless your class is also extremely competitive as is the case with Chemistry, you really need to lift your Ad. English to at least within the top 10-15. Otherwise, even if you perform well in the external exam...

Hey Anna, how's it going? I hope Uni is a bit more fun than the HSC [IMG].

Deceptive appearances and illusions are the worst possible thing people can do in my opinion. Just be candid about your emotions, say the things you want to say and try not to get caught up in the political aspect of it all. I don't know if other guys feel this way, but the thing I find most...

Thanks for the rep. [IMG]
